Lyrics
Cyrillic script[1] Latin scriptIPA transcription English translation

Харцоно цӏе тесна хийла хьо ягарх,
Нохчийчоь ца йоьжна, гӏаьттина яха.
Кавказан ткъес хилла, маршонан ага,
Хьан лаьттан сий дина яхь йолчу наха.

Барт болу хьан къаьмнаш – мах боцу беркат!
Хьо йоцург, Нана яц, нохчийн халкъ хьаста.
Тхан дахар, тхан дерзар Даймехкан кхерчахь,
Декъалдар доьхуш ду, Далла беш хастам.

Башламан баххьашка дайн синош дуьссу.
Органа тулгӏено ненан мотт буьйцу.
Исбаьхьа совгӏат хьо, азаллехь делла!
Шатлакхан илли ду тхуна ницкъ белларг!

Къинхьегам, хьан хьуьнарш хазделла шайна,
Хьалкъаца лерам бар кхаъ хуьлда хьуна.
Машаран гӏаролехь ирсан некъ тайна,
Сий долуш Нохчийчоь ехийла тхуна!

Xarcono ċe tesna xiyla ẋo yagarx,
Noxçiyçö ca yöƶna ġättina yaxa.
Kavkazan tq̇es xilla, marşonan aga,
Ẋan lättan siy dina yaẋ yolçu naxa.

Bart bolu ẋan q̇ämnaş – max bocu berkat!
Ẋo yocurg, Nana yac, noxçiyn xalq̇ ẋasta.
Txan daxar, txan derzar Daymexkan qerçaẋ,
Deq̇aldar döxuş du, Dalla beş xastam.

Başlaman baxẋaşka dayn sinoş düssu.
Organa tulġeno nenan mott büycu.
Isbäẋa sovġat ẋo, azalleẋ della!
Şatlaqan illi du txuna nicq̇ bellarg!

Q̇inẋegam, ẋan ẋünarş xazdella şayna,
Ẋalq̇aca leram bar qaə xülda ẋuna.
Maşaran ġaroleẋ irsan neq̇ tayna,
Siy doluş Noxçiyçö yexiyla txuna!

No matter how unfair the wildfire of injustice in Chechnya,
You kept falling and rising again.
The lightning of Caucasus, the cradle of liberty,
Your honour was kept by your proud people.
 
The peace between your peoples is priceless wealth!
There is no other motherland for the Chechens.
Our lives and our deaths in the heart of our homeland,
We beg you to bless.

The ancestors' souls descend to Bashlam's peak.
The wave of Argun speaks our mother tongue.
Our lives blessed us with a great gift — you!
Shatlak's song gave us strength!

Love for work and courage, respect for all peoples,
Let this be pleasant news for you.
The Guardian of freedom, who has found its path
Live for us, oh worthy Chechnya![2]
