Russian English translation

На днестровском берегу зеленом
Расцветал наш город много лет.
И теперь шумят над ним знамена
Боевых и трудовых побед. (2 раза)

On the bank of the green Dniester lands,
Lies the city that has been flourished by many years.
By multiple banners now holding it,
Battle and labor shall reign. (2 times)

Рыбница – это наш город надежды,
Рыбница – зарево светлой мечты,
Рыбница – в завтрашний день, как и прежде,
Ведут твои дороги и мосты.

Rîbnița - This is our hopeful city
Rîbnița - Let their glowing dreams fly
Rîbnița - Again, reaching the future,
Lead us with your roads and bridges.

Отшумели грозы над землею,
Ты полна свершений, новых сил.
И крыла расправил над тобою
В небесах Архангел Михаил. (2 раза)

If there's storm across the land,
You're full of achievements and forces.
Archangel Michael will spread their wings above you,
In heaven's reign. (2 times)

Ты живешь единою судьбою
С приднестровской дружною семьей.
Город наш, гордимся мы тобою
И для нас ты вечно молодой. (2 раза)

You're living a common destiny
In the Transistrian family.
We are proud of our city
And you're forever young in our minds. (2 times)
