Estonia National Anthem Lyrics
Estonia

[Original Estonian Words]

Mu isamaa, mu õnn ja rõõm,
kui kaunis oled sa!
Ei leia mina iial teal see
surre lai a ilma peal,
mis mul nii armas oleks ka,
kui sa, mu isamaa!

Sa oled mind ju sünnitand
ja üles kasvatand;
sind tänan mina alati
ja jään sull' truuiks surmani,
mul kõige armsam oled sa,
mu kallis isamaa!

Su üle Jumal valvaku,
mu armas isamaa!
Ta olgu sinu kaitseja
ja võtku rohkest õnnista,
mis iial ette võtad sa,
mu kallis isamaa!

[English: Poetic]

My native land, my joy, delight,
How fair thou art and bright!
And nowhere in the world all round
Can ever such a place be found
So well beloved as I love thee,
My native country dear!

My little cradle stood on thy soil,
Whose blessings ease my toil.
With my last breath my thanks to thee,
For true to death I'll ever be,
O worthy, most beloved and fine,
Thou, dearest country mine!

May God in Heaven thee defend,
My best, my dearest land!
May He be guard, may He be shield,
Forever may He bless and wield
O graciously all deeds of thine,
Thou dearest country mine!

[English: Literal]

My Fatherland, My Happiness and Joy,
how beautiful you are
I will never find it
to die on a wide a weather,
which would be so sweet to me too
if you, my country!

You're my birthright
and up the farm;
I always thank you
and I will remain faithful to death,
i love you the most
my dear homeland!

May God watch over you,
my dear fatherland!
Let him be your protector
and take many to bless,
what do you ever do
my dear homeland!
