Lyrics
Armenian:
Menk’ misht aprel yenk’ ays hogherum
K’aghel u hndzel ays dashterum
Serundner bkhel k’vo geterits’
Manukner tsnuel k’vo lerrnerits’
Hanrayin dimak avandakan
Azatagrakan payk’ar kam mah
Dshnamu ach’k’y taratsk’nerid
Mer zhpitnery k’vo tsots’yerin
K’vo anhatak kamk’in
Menk’ piti yergenk’ brrunts’k’nerov
Ardarut’yean drosh yeragoynov
Mardkaynut’ yean ser khaghaghut’ yean
Manuki demk’in surb orhnut’yeamb
Menk’ piti haght’ yenk’ mshakuyt’ov
Menk’ piti haght’ yenk’ mshakuyt’ov
Menk’ piti haght’ yenk’ mer Hayut’yeamb
English:
We've always lived on these lands,
Reaped and Harvested these fields,
Generations sprung from your rivers,
Children born from your mountains,
The public mask of tradition,
The struggle for liberation or death,
The enemy's gaze at your terrain,
Our smiles at your bosom,
At your bottomless will.
We're going to sing with our fists
With the tricolor flag of justice,
Humanitarian love of peace
With the holy blessing of a child's face,
We are going to prevail with culture
We are going to prevail with culture
We are going to prevail by being Armenian.
