Нам родная Москва дорога.
Нерушимой стеной, обороной стальной,
Разгромим, уничтожим врага!- My ne drognem v boju za stolicu svoju,
Nam rodnaja Moskva doroga.
Nerušimoj stenoj, oboronoj stalʹnoj,
Razgromim, uničtožim vraga! - We will not tremble in the battle for our capital,
native Moscow, dear to us.
As an unbreakable wall, a steely bulwark,
We will smash and annihilate foes!
