Translated English Version

Край наш поморский Могуч и прекрасен! Его не забудешь вовек. Манят отважных Бескрайние дали, Где не ступал человек!  Здесь по Петрову Веленью из моря Ряд белокрылых Фрегатов восстал. И колыбелью Российского флота Край наш Архангельский стал.  Здесь Ломоносов Великий родился, Мудростью мир осветил, Былинные сказы, Загадки природы В научную быль воплотил.  Край наш поморский В движении и силе, Ему по плечу Новый век! Космос, богатства, Глубины морские — Все покорит человек

Our land by the sea Is beautiful and great! Once seen, it won't leave your mind. The fearless are called By its boundless expanse, Where no person has stepped before!  Here, from the sea, By the will of Peter the Great, A row of white-winged Frigates arose. And so the birthplace of the Russian navy Became our home of Arkhangelsk.  This is the homeland Of the great Lomonosov; He brought the light of knowledge to the world, The tales of old And the mysteries of nature He transformed into scientific realities.  Our land by the sea Is strong and constantly moving, And can handle the challenges that come! Outer space, nature's treasures, And the depths of the sea — All of these can be conquered by man
