The Tuvan National Anthem
Tooruktug Dolgaï Tangdym
The Forest is Full of Cedar Nuts

 

When I walk in my forest
I will always be satisfied
Because my forest is rich with
     animals and everything I need.

There in the mountains, the
     cliffs, the taiga, I was born.
Because of that I am strong.
I will raise my livestock
     and be rich.
Nine different animals -- If I herd
     them and feed them
And take care of them as my
     own -- I'll be rich.
