Menıñ Qazaqstanym[lower-alpha 1] is the national anthem of Kazakhstan since 7 January 2006,[1] replacing the "Anthem of the Republic of Kazakhstan", which was in use since its independence in 1991, but had the same melody as the anthem of the Kazakh Soviet Socialist Republic.

It is based on a homonymous patriotic song created by Kazakh composer Shamshi Kaldayakov and poet Jumeken Najimedenov in 1956.[2] The original lyrics were modified in 2005 by the first president of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev, before the decree was issued.[3]

Origins

This song is based on a 1956 patriotic song titled "Menıñ Qazaqstanym" created in response to the Soviet Virgin Lands Campaign program. There is debate over whether it was to celebrate the program or to insist Soviet authorities should not turn Kazakhstan into Russia's corn belt.[4]

Алтын күн аспаны,
Алтын дән даласы,
Ерліктің дастаны –
Еліме қарашы!
Ежелден ер деген,
Даңқымыз шықты ғой,
Намысын бермеген,
Қазағым мықты ғой!

Қайырмасы:
Менің елім, менің елім,
Гүлің болып егілемін,
Жырың болып төгілемін, елім!
Туған жерім менің — Қазақстаным!

II
Ұрпаққа жол ашқан,
Кең байтақ жерім бар.
Бірлігі жарасқан,
Тәуелсіз елім бар.
Қарсы алған уақытты,
Мәңгілік досындай.
Біздің ел бақытты,
Біздің ел осындай!

I
Sky of golden sun,
Steppe of golden seed,
Legend of courage –
Take a look at my country!
From the antiquity
Our heroic glory emerged,
They did not give up their pride
My Kazakh people are strong!

Chorus:
My country, my country,
As your flower I will be planted,
As your song I will stream, my country!
My native land – My Kazakhstan!

II
The way was opened to the descendants
By the vast land I have.
Its unity is proper,
I have an independent country.
It welcomed the tests of time
Like an eternal friend,
Our country is blessed,
Our country is such!

Алтын күн аспаны,
Алтын дән даласы
Думанды бастады
Далама қарашы!
Кең екен жер деген,
Жерге гүл шықты ғой.
Дән егіп терлеген,
Қазағым мықты ғой!

II
Айналап қарасам
Ғашықты жүрегім
Заманға жарассам
Жарасып тұр елім.
Біздің ел — ордынды,
Көтерді туларды,
Желмен ол тербелді,
Термеде жырладым.

I
Sun of gold in the sky,
Grain of gold in the steppe.
Let us all celebrate —
Take a look at the steppe!
How spacious is this land,
Flowers bloom on the ground.
Grains are with toil sowed —
My Kazakhs are intrepid!

Chorus:
My motherland, my motherland,
As thy song I shall stream from thee,
As thy flower I shall bloom, o homeland!
My native homeland – my Kazakhstan!

II
Around when I glance,
My heart with love filleth.
In this day I conform,
Behold my noble folk.
Our country – a vast land,
Our banners are raised.
In the wind they swayed,
In terme I rejoiced.

Chorus

III
There is a looming steppe,
There is placid bounty.
O look and gratify,
I have such a country.
Of new eras welcomed,
Like an age-old friend.
Blessed is our country,
Such as our country!

Chorus

Protocol

"Menıñ Qazaqstanym" is played during official state ceremonies and social functions, such as sporting events involving national sports teams of Kazakhstan. All radio stations and television networks across the country play the national anthem twice, once during "Sign-On" and "Sign-Off" every day, the performance of the anthem is not regulated by any government law; however, there is traditional protocol that is employed during a performance of the song. Most citizens put their hands over their heart while singing the anthem following United States practice. Traditionally universal etiquette is to stand during the performance. Officers and personnel of the Kazakh Armed Forces offer a Russian-style military salute when in uniform during the performance of the anthem when not in formation.

2012 sporting event incidents

In March 2012, a parody national anthem, O Kazakhstan, featured in the soundtrack of the movie Borat, was mistakenly played at the International Shooting Grand Prix in Kuwait. The Gold-winning medalist, Mariya Dmitriyenko, stood on the dais while the entire parody was played. The team complained, and the award ceremony was re-staged. The incident apparently resulted from the wrong song being downloaded from YouTube at the last minute.[13][14] Senior officials in Kazakhstan were furious with the error and vowed to make a complaint to their Kuwaiti counterparts.

A similar incident had taken place earlier that month at the opening ceremony of a skiing festival in Kostanay, in which the first bar of Ricky Martin's single "Livin' La Vida Loca" was played instead of "Meniñ Qazaqstanım". However, "Meniñ Qazaqstanım" was played properly following the mistake.[15]
