Vajacki marš

Anthem of the Belarusian Democratic Republic

Text: Makar Kraŭcoŭ
Music: Uładzimier Teraŭski

My vyjdziem ščylnymi radami
Na volny, rodny naš prastor.
Chaj vola viečna budzie z nami,
A gvałtu my damo adpor!

Niachaj žyvie mahutny, śmieły
Naš biełaruski volny duch!
Štandar naš bieł-čyrvona-bieły,
Pakryj saboj narodny ruch!

Na boj za ščaście i za volu
Narodu słaŭnaha svajho!
Braty, ciarpieli my davoli
Na boj usie da adnaho!

Imia i siłu biełarusa
Niachaj pačuje j bačyć toj,
Chto budzie nam čynić prymusy
I pieršy vykliča na boj!

Braty, da ščaścia my padchodzim,
Chaj hrom hrymić jašče macniej,
Ŭ kryvavych mukach my narodzim
Žyćcio Baćkoŭščyny svaje!

We will come out in dense rows
To our own free land.
Let freedom always be with us,
And we will resist the violence!

Long live our strong and brave
Belarusian spirit!
Let our white-red-white banner
Cover the National movement!

To the fight for the happiness and life
Of our glorious nation!
Brothers, we have suffered enough,
So everyone stand up to the fight!

Let the name and power of the Belarusians
See and feel those
Who will try to force us
And will call us out to the fight!

Brothers, we come to our happiness,
Let the thunder sound stronger!
In bloody tortures we will give birth
To the life of our Fatherland!

Searched
together ways to happiness.
In battles for freedom and for a good life
With Russia we found the banner of Victory.


We were united by Lenin‘s name,
The
communist party leads us on the way,
Long live the communist party! Long live our Fatherland!
Long live the people of Belarus!

The people of Belarus become mightier
In the

And forever we will be free people
In a free and happy land!


We were united by Lenin‘s name,
The communist party leads us on the way,
Long

Long live our free people!

And the sunny way to the happiness of the workers.
So let the flag of communism – the flag of happiness
Proudly stream high in the sky!

The communist party leads us on the way,
Long live the communist party! Long live our Fatherland!
Long live the people of the USSR!

Mahutny Boža

Created as a religious hymn, nowadays it is an unofficial anthem of Belarus used by national anti- łukashist intellectuals

Text: Natalla Arsieńnieva
Music: Mikoła Ravienski
 

Mahutny Boža, ŭładar suśvietaŭ
Vialikich soncaŭ i serc małych!
Nad Biełarusiaj cichaj i vietłaj,
Rassyp pramieńni svaje chvały.

Daj sporu ŭ pracy štodzionnaj šeraj
Na łustu chliebu na rodny kraj,
Pavahu, siłu i vielič viery
U našu praŭdy, u pryšłaść – daj!

Daj uradlivaść žytniovym nivam,
Učynkam našym pajšli ŭmałot!
Zrabi mahutnaj, zrabi ščaśliva
j
Krajinu našu i naš narod!

Oh almighty God, lord of the Universe
Of great Suns and small hearts!
Spread beams of your glory
Over the calm Belarus

Give us help in everyday work
For the peace of bread and for our country,
Respect, power and belief
In our truth, in the coming of Jesus.

Give fertility to our fields
Send succe
ss to our deeds.
Let our country and our people be
Strong and fortunate.
