The National Anthem of the Republic of South Ossetia[note 1] (Ossetian: Республикӕ Хуссар Ирыстоны Паддзахадон гимн, romanized: Rêšpublika Xuššâr Ireštone Pâddzâxâdon Gimn [resˈpublikɐ ˈχuʂ̟ːar irɘʂ̟ˈtonɘ ˈpad(d͡)zaχadon gimn]), also known as Beloved Ossetia! (Ossetian: Уарзон Ирыстон!, pronounced [ˈwarʐ̟on irɘʂ̟ˈton]), was adopted on 5 May 1995. The lyrics were written by Totraz Kokaev,[1] and the music was composed by Felix Alborov.[2][3] It was composed before South Ossetia's de facto independence from Georgia, while both were still part of the Soviet Union.[4]
The anthem is played at state functions, as well as South Ossetia politicians' meetings with foreign leaders[5][6] and at the beginning and end of the school week.[7]

I Wastyrdzhi ! thy blessing and grace!O give Ossetian clan happiness! III Our forebears' pride, home of the Ossete! Through one kindred, we're united. In this world of sorrow through defeat, Be not dispersed nor divided. Through aeons may thy name echo, Thy glory groweth with delight, Together we live with thy hope aglow, Thanks to thee, our lives shine bright! Chorus III: O cherished Farn! thy blessing and grace! Blessed be our dear Ossetia! Thine honour and glory! |

Notes
- ^ South Ossetia's status is disputed. It considers itself to be an independent state, but this is recognised by only a few other countries. The Georgian government and most of the world's other states consider South Ossetia de jure a part of Georgia's territory.
