Арт–арттың оваазынга Дажын салып чалбарган Таңды, Саян ыдыынга Агын өргээн тыва мен. Кожумаа: Мен – тыва мен, Мөңге харлыг дагның оглу мен. Мен – тыва мен, Мөңгүн суглуг чурттуң төлү мен. Өгбелерим чуртунда Өлчей тарып иженген, Өткүт хөөмей ырынга Өөрүп талаан тыва мен. Кожумаа Аймак чоннар бүлези Акы–дуңма найыралдыг, Депшилгеже чүткүлдүг Демниг чурттуг тыва мен. Кожумаа	Art–arttyng owaazynga Dajyn salyp chalbargan Tangdy, Saian ydyynga Agyn örgeen tywa men. Kojumaa: Men – tywa men, Möngge harlyg dagnyng oglu men.

Kojumaa Aimak chonnar bülezi Aky–dungma naiyraldyg, Depshilgeje chütküldüg Demnig churttug tywa men.

Tangdy, Sayan most hallowed, With white milk, I purified. Chorus: I am a Tuvan, The son of immortal snow-capped peaks. I am a Tuvan, The daughter of our homeland's argent creeks. In the land of my fathers, Beloved bliss became thine. Sound of khoomei most divine, Blessed be my Tuvan line. Chorus We are made of holy tribes, As brothers, friends together we thrive. For progress as a whole we strive, As allied Tuvans we live! Chorus
