The State Anthem of the Turkmen SSR (Turkmen: Түркменистан Совет Социалистик Республикасы Дошлет Гимни; Türkmienistan Soviet Socialistik Riespublikasy Döwlet Gimni) was the national anthem of Turkmenistan when it was a republic of the Soviet Union.

Background

The anthem was used from 1946 to 1997. The music was composed by Veli Mukhatov, who also composed the current anthem of Turkmenistan; and the lyrics were written by Aman Kekilov and a group of authors. On April 12, 1978, the original lyrics were changed to remove mentions of Joseph Stalin. After independence was declared, this anthem melody was still used until 1997. Except, there were no lyrics in the new version.
