Lyrics

Georgian Transliteration Translation
დიდება ზეცით კურთხეულს,
დიდება ქვეყნად სამოთხეს,
ტურფა ივერსა,
დიდება ძმობას, ერთობას,
დიდება თავისუფლებას,
დიდება სამარადისო
ქართველ მხნე ერსა!
დიდება ჩვენსა სამშობლოს,
დიდება ჩვენი სიცოცხლის
მიზანს დიადსა;
ვაშა ტრფობასა, სიყვარულს,
ვაშა შვებასა, სიხარულს,
სალამი ჭეშმარიტების
შუქ-განთიადსა!
Dideba zetsit k'urtkheuls
Dideba kveq'nad samotkhes,
T'urpa Iversa.
Dideba dzmobas, ertobas,
Dideba tavisuplebas,
Dideba samaradiso
Kartvel mkhne ersa!
Dideba chvensa samshoblos,
Dideba chveni sitsotskhlis
Mizans diadsa;
Vasha t'rpobasa, siq'varuls
Vasha shvebasa, sikharuls,
Salami ch'eshmarit'ebis,
Shuk - gantiadsa!
Praise be to the heavenly Bestower of Blessings,
Praise be to paradise on earth,
To the radiant Iberia,
Praise be to brotherhood and to unity,
Praise be to liberty,
Praise be to the everlasting,
lively Georgian people!
Praise be to our fatherland,
Praise be to the great and bright aim of our lives;
Hail, O joy and love,
Hail helpfulness and happiness,
Greetings to the truth, that light of dawn!
