Anthem of the Republic of Kazakhstan

This article is about the previous national anthem of Kazakhstan. For the current national anthem of Kazakhstan, see Meniñ Qazaqstanım.

The National Anthem of the Republic of Kazakhstan ([Қазақстан Республикасының Мемлекеттік Әнұраны, Qazaqstan Respwblïkasınıñ memlekettik änuranı] Error: {{Lang-xx}}: text has italic markup (help)) was the title of the old national anthem of Kazakhstan, when it was adopted as the anthem from 1992 to early 2006. Upon independence in December 1991, the melody of the Kazakh SSR anthem, composed by Mukan Tulebayev, Eugeny Brusilovsky and Latif Khamidi, was retained; and new lyrics were adopted in 1992, written by Muzafar Alimbayev, Kadyr Myrzaliyev, Tumanbai Moldagaliyev and Zhadyra Daribayeva.

On January 7, 2006, "My Kazakhstan" ([Менің Қазақстаным, Meniñ Qazaqstanım] Error: {{Lang-xx}}: text has italic markup (help)), written in 1956, was adopted as the new anthem, with modified lyrics.

In the News

In March 2012, during medal ceremony of the International Shooting Tournament in Kuwait City, a mocked version of the Kazakhstan national anthem from the film Borat was played, much to the embarrassment of the medal winner Maria Dmitrienko.
