Anthem of the Latvian Soviet Socialist Republic
Template:Short description Template:Infobox anthem Template:Listen
The State Anthem of the Latvian Soviet Socialist Republic was the anthem of Latvia from 1945 to 1990 when it was occupied by the Soviet Union.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
The anthem was approved by the Supreme Soviet of the Latvian Soviet Socialist Republic on 19 July 1945, subsequently banning the previous anthem "Dievs, svētī Latviju!". The original lyrics had references to Joseph Stalin until its replacement in 1977, when the references of him were removed. After Latvia regained independence in 1990, "Dievs, svētī Latviju!" was restored as its anthem on 15 February 1990.
Background
The music was composed by Anatols Liepiņš, and the lyrics were written by Fricis Rokpelnis and Jūlijs Vanags.

Путь светлый для всех поколений открыт. Шумит наше море, цветут наши нивы, В семье городов наша Рига гремит.Template:Efn
Не раз мы за волю ходили походом, Бесправия цепи пытались разбить, Лишь в дружбе незыблемой с русским народом Смогли мы неправду и зло победить.Template:Efn Под знаменем Ленина к счастью и славе Путём Октября мы победно идём.

<poem>In this land most dear we gained our freedom,
Generation upon generation blessed to be born here, Here our sea sighs, here our fields blossom, Here our cities ring out, here Riga resounds. Template:Small Let Soviet Latvia live forever, Let it shine bright in the Soviet crown! We rose to break chains of slavery, About centuries' long struggles it is told in every place. Only in fraternity with the great Russian nation We became a power to wage revolution. On Lenin's road to blessings and glory, With the flag of October we will go on forever. We will guard our Soviet Fatherland, Everyone to the last drop of our blood. 𝄆 Template:Small 𝄇</poem> |
