({{lang-ru|Славься, Отечество наше свободное!}}; ''Slav’sya, Otechestvo nashe svobodnoye!'', lit. "Be glorious, our free Fatherland!"), officially known as the "'''State Anthem of the Soviet Union'''" ({{lang-rus|Государственный гимн СССР|r=Gosudarstvenny Gimn SSSR}}) was introduced during [[World War II]] on 15 March 1944, replacing ''[[The Internationale]]'' as the official anthem of the [[Soviet Union]] and the [[Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic]]. The lyrics were written by [[Sergey Mikhalkov]] (1913–2009) in collaboration with [[Gabriel El-Registan]] (1899–1945) and the music was composed by [[Alexander Vasilyevich Alexandrov|Alexander Alexandrov]] (1883–1946). Although the Soviet Union was dissolved in 1991, its national anthem's melody continues to be used in the Russian Federation's national anthem, which has lyrics different from the Soviet one. ==History== [[File:Anthem of The Soviet Union 1980.ogv|thumb|right|350px|Playing of the State Anthem at the 63rd Anniversary Jubilee of the [[Great October Socialist Revolution]], 1980.]] <div class="center" style="width:auto; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto;"> {{listen |filename = Gimn Sovetskogo Soyuza (1944 Stalinist lyrics).oga |title = Vocal (1944 lyrics) |description = By the Red Army Ensemble |format = [[Ogg]] |filename2 = Soviet Anthem Instrumental 1955.ogg |title2 = Instrumental (1955) |description2 = |format2 = [[Ogg]] |filename3 = Gimn Sovetskogo Soyuza (1977 Vocal).oga |title3 = Vocal (1977 lyrics) |description3 = By the choir and orchestra of [[Bolshoi Theater]] |format3 = [[Ogg]] }} </div> The Anthem of the Soviet Union was played for the first time on the Soviet radio at midnight on 1 January 1944.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.hymn.ru/anthem-sovietunion-1943.html|title=Гимн СССР (1943)|publisher=}} {{dead link|date=November 2016}}</ref>{{citation needed|date=January 2017}} The 1944 lyrics had three different refrains following three different stanzas; in each refrain, the second line was consequently modified with references to friendship, then happiness and finally to glory. [[Joseph Stalin]] and the [[Eastern Front (World War II)|Soviet Union's war against Nazi Germany]] were originally invoked in the lyrics. With the process of [[de-Stalinization]] inaugurated after Stalin's death, the lyrics which referred to Stalin were considered unacceptable and during 1953–1977 the anthem was performed without lyrics.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://sputniknews.com/russia/20130313/179993626/Russia-Marks-Soviet-Poet-Mikhalkovs-100th-Anniversary.html|title=Russia Marks Soviet Poet Mikhalkov’s 100th Anniversary|first=|last=Sputnik|publisher=}}</ref> A notable exception took place at the [[1976 Canada Cup|1976 Canada Cup ice hockey tournament]], where the singer [[Roger Doucet]] insisted on performing the anthem with lyrics, after consultations with Russian studies scholars from [[Université de Montréal]] and the Soviet team officials.<ref name="On Ice">{{cite web | url=http://www2.canada.com/ottawacitizen/news/opinion/story.html?id=185e0d97-a22c-4088-9c5e-d70c2c25094c&p=1 | title=The Cold War on ice | date=9 September 2009 | first=Eric | last=Morse | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20150402133842/http://www2.canada.com/ottawacitizen/news/opinion/story.html?id=185e0d97-a22c-4088-9c5e-d70c2c25094c&p=1 | archivedate=2015-04-02|work= canada.com}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.greatesthockeylegends.com/2010/04/how-roger-doucet-wrote-soviet-national.html|title=How Roger Doucet Wrote the Soviet National Anthem|publisher=}}</ref> In 1977, to coincide with the 60th anniversary of the [[October Revolution]], revised lyrics, earlier written in 1970 by the original author [[Sergey Mikhalkov]],<ref name='Голованова'>{{cite book | last = Голованова | first = М.

The varying refrains were replaced by a uniform refrain following all stanzas; the line praising Stalin was dropped, as were the lines referring to the Great Patriotic War. ==Use in the Russian Federation== After the [[dissolution of the Soviet Union]] in 1991, the [[Russia|Russian Federation]] adopted a new wordless anthem called the "[[Patrioticheskaya Pesnya|Patriotic Song]]", although there were suggestions for adopting lyrics. As a result, a few different versions were produced.<ref>[http://www.hymn.ru/#related-to-glinka-anthem II.

The Soviet anthem remains for many a song of national pride and of international unity with former [[Union republic]]s. It is often played at [[Communist Party of the Russian Federation|Communist]] rallies and apolitical [[Victory Day (9 May)|Victory Day]] celebrations. {{citation needed|date=January 2016}}{{where?|date=January 2017}} In the summer of 2012, at an [[Mixed martial arts|MMA]] competition in St. Petersburg, which Russian Federation President [[Vladimir Putin]] attended, American fighter [[Jeff Monson]] entered the arena with the Soviet anthem being played as his entry song; Russian President Putin and the entire audience stood up for the anthem.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvtJrjcl4vs|title=Джефф Монсон vs. Денис Комкин, mma video HD|first=|last=M-1 Global|date=26 November 2012|publisher=|via=YouTube}}</ref> ==State Union of Russia and Belarus== Also, the same music was used for a proposal of the anthem of the [[Union of Russia and Belarus|State Union of Russia and Belarus]] entitled Derzhavny Soyuz Narodov (Union of Sovereign Nations). Although never officially adopted, the lyrics of that piece were not tied to any specific nationality, and could be adopted for a [[Commonwealth of Independent States|broader union]]. However, there appears to be no plans to utilize that piece in any official role. The anthem also had official versions in the languages of every Soviet republic and in several other [[languages of the Soviet Union|Soviet languages]]. {{clear}} ==Decommunization== In some {{which|date=March 2017}} [[post-Soviet states]] which adopted [[decommunization]] laws [[Bans on Communist symbols|banning the Communist symbolism]], performing the Soviet anthem is illegal.
