Uzbekistan

Words by: Abdulla Aripov
Music by: Mutal Burhanov
Adopted: 1992

When Uzbekistan was a republic of the Soviet Union, it was given its own anthem to use. Upon independence in 1992, lacking any prior history as a nation or prior national anthem, the old anthem as a Soviet republic, with new lyrics, was kept in use.

Special thanks to: Davie H. Y. Wen for the Uzbek lyrics and Jaroslaw Wojcik for the sheet music.
