It's hard to imagine, but this patriotic song is over 250 years old! And still no one knows the true author of these words and. Therefore, it is sometimes considered popular.

By the way, despite the fact that the solemn music of the anthem often sounds on various events state level, its official documentary evidence and the assertion does not exist. It's strange, but it's a fact. Well, from lyrics to lyrics.

British Anthem "God Save the Queen"

1. God save our Gracious Queen! Long live our noble Queen! God save the Queen! send her victorious, Happy and Glorious, Long to reign over us God save the Queen.	God save our gracious Queen! Long live our noble Queen! God save the queen! Send her military victories, Happiness and glory And a long reign over us, God save the queen.
2. O Lord, our God, arise, Scatter her enemies, And make them fall. Confound their politics Frustrat their knavish tricks On Thee our hopes we fix God save us all.	Lord our God, arise Break her enemies And bring them to their death. Shame the efforts of their states, Frustrate their dastardly tricks We place our hope in You, God save us all.
3. Thy choicest gifts in store, On her be pleased to pour; Long may she reign. may she defend our laws, And ever give us cause To sing with heart and voice God save the Queen!	Your chosen gifts Delight to pour on her; May she reign for a long time. Let her protect our laws And may he give us a reason Sing with heart and voice: God save the queen!

I suggest that you not only read the words of the anthem, but also watch the video where you can listen to it in a classical performance.

Another curious fact is that at the time when the king was at the head of the country, the words "Queen" in the anthem were replaced by King, well, and accordingly the pronouns were changed.

I hope you liked it! Until we meet again, friends! Do not forget to subscribe to delicious portions of English - no platitudes, only delicacies))

Gaudeamus (translated by S.I. Sobolevsky)

So let's have some fun
While we are young!
After a happy youth
After a bitter old age
The earth will take us.

Where are those before us
Did you live on earth?
Go to Heaven
Go to Hell
Where have they been!

Our life is short
Its end is near;
Death comes quickly
Takes us ruthlessly
No one will be spared!

Long live the Academy!
Long live professors!
Long live all its members!
Long live every member!
May they flourish forever!

Long live all the girls
Slim, graceful!
Long live the women
tender, loving,
Kind, hardworking!

Long live our country
And the one who rules it!
Long live our city
Grace of patrons,
who patronize us!

Let sorrow perish
Let sorrows perish!
May the Devil perish
And all the enemies of the students
And laughing! (above them).

Gaudeamus (poetic translation)

Gaudeamus - rejoice
Morning sun, folks!
Light youth rushes by
Old age will knock on the door,
It will bring sickness.

Will fly by, fly by
Days of spring carefree.
Ruthless and ferocious
Erebus threatens us -
Kingdom of night eternal.

Vivat Academy!
Vivat professor!
Let the tramp and the student
Enter boldly into the garden of legends
The forces of darkness on the mountain!

Glory to the young girls!
Glory to gentle wives!
With disinterested, great
And a sympathetic soul
And diligent in work!

May Lucifer perish
And like him!
Coward, ignoramus and fool,
And students are a fierce enemy,
Mockingbird is vicious!

Gaudeamus, another poetic translation

At the hour when we are young
Fight the flame of life!
After a cheerful youth
Following the harsh old age
Death will come for us.

Where are those who do not make noise,
Who is not with us?
Or in paradise they soar,
Or they burn in hell
Ah, to know that!

Youth is fleeting
Short reward.
Death comes suddenly
Will lead you,
Mercy is alien to her.

vivat academia,
Vivat professors!
Sink away the heavy burden of sorrow,
Strengthen, glorify our union,
Age sound our voice!

Hymn Gaudeamus translated by A.Mashistov

For fun we are given
Youth!
Life will pass, strength will run out,
The darkness of the grave awaits all mortals -
That's what nature says.

2. Where are the people before us
Did you live in this world?
Go down to the underworld
Up, rise to the sky -
You won't find an answer.

3. Our age is short, friends,
Everything in the world is perishable.
At the appointed hour, all living things
Evil death with his scythe
Kills invariably.

4. Only science on earth
Shines on people forever.
Glory to the one who is friendly with her,
Selflessly serves her
In a fleeting life!

5. Praise to the girls relatives
Let's rightfully repay!
Glory to wives, mothers,
Their caring hearts
And glory to their work!

6. Let it bloom from year to year
Holy Motherland!
Glory to those who lead us
Relentlessly forward,
Lighting our path!

7. Let the evil spirit doubt
Our hearts do not gnaw!
Away with despondency, away with enmity!
Glory to peace and labor,
Glory to the youth!

Translation from the archive of V.I. Izvekov

We rejoice, for in us
Youth and strength.
After a cheerful youth
After hard old age
The grave will take us.

Where, all those in the old days
Lived and had fun?
Who rose to the top
Who descended into the depths
Everyone has moved.

Human life is short
Our age is fleeting.
Death is easy,
Her hand is heavy
Everyone is scheduled.

Let's drink to the university
We drink to you, professor,
Hello to each member,
Every part of the eternal color,
Many summers for everyone.

We drink girls for health,
Kind and beautiful
We drink and the health of wives,
Bright in heart and brow
And industrious.

The common cause of Rus',
And who is in charge
Land of Enlighteners
generous patrons,
Our song praises all.

Get rid of the sadness
Disappear deceit,
Disappear the spirit of evil and darkness
And who are we not cute!
Here students kingdom!

Hymn to Gaudeamus (translation)

let's have fun
While we are young.
Youth does not last long
Wrinkles on the forehead
And we are already in the ground.

Where are the people before us
Lived in this world?
To find them now
Go down to the underworld
Rise up into the sky.

Our life is short
And death is inevitable
We are not allowed to live forever.
Merciless comes
And in underworld leads away.

But long live the student!
And the guardians of science!
After all, the university is indestructible!
And let the students
Blooms forever.

On behalf of all men
Praise to our girls
Let them blossom into women.
Beautiful and slim
Passionate, worthy of love.

May the motherland flourish
And long live our people!
And wallets do not run out
Those who help us
Those who lead us forward!

Let sadness and longing go away!
Our problems will be solved!
And let them go to hell
All our enemies
Let no one be afraid of us!

RUSSIAN GAUDEAMUS

Hurray-patriotic song of Russian students

Hooray for whoever guessed
Our destination!
Be Russian said
And gave a native word
Seek enlightenment.

Praise to you, mother of all Russians,
Terrible Eagle!
Peace You won't know
You will own the world
Brave queen!

Vivat University,
Our common teacher
Perfect pure light
The testament of the past centuries to us,
Future keeper!

Hooray for you all, doves,
Red girls!
Praise to you, young people,
You are good mothers
Smarties are not lionesses!

Cursed be the cosmopolitan
Pathetic bastard,
Who scolds everything Russian,
About overseas only repeats
That ignorant pitiful one!

(translation into English)

Suddenly there was a need to translate the Anthem of Russia into English language. As it turned out, there are not so many translation options and each has its drawbacks. As a result, another version prepared by our specialists appeared. Since we are not literary, but technical translators, our version claims more accuracy, rather than poetry.

Russia is our sacred power,
Russia is our beloved country.
Mighty will, great glory are
Your property for all times!

From the southern seas up to the polar land,
Our forests and fields have spread.
You are the one under the sun! You're the only one of such a kind
Protected by God darling land!

Be glorious, our free Fatherland,
A centuries-long union of brotherly nations,
Peoples' wisdom given by the foregoers!
Be glorious, country! We are proud of you!

A wide space for dreams and living
The coming years open to us.
Our faithfulness to the Motherland gives us power.
That was and that is and that will be for good!

Be glorious, our free Fatherland,
A centuries-long union of brotherly nations,
Peoples' wisdom given by the foregoers!
Be glorious, country! We are proud of you!
