Russian Empire National Anthem (1791-1816; Instrumental) Гром Побе́ды, Раздава́йся!

"Let the Thunder of Victory Rumble!" (Russian: Гром побе́ды, раздава́йся!, Grom pobedy, razdavaysya!) was an unofficial Russian national anthem in the late 18th and early 19th century.
The lyrics were written by the premier Russian poet, Gavrila Derzhavin, and the music by composer Osip Kozlovsky, in 1791. The song was written to commemorate the capture of major Ottoman fortress Izmail by the great Russian general Aleksandr Suvorov. This event effectively ended the Seventh Russo-Turkish War.

(English Lyrics / Translation)
Triumph's thunder louder, higher!
Russian pride is running high!
Russia's glory sparkles brighter!
We have humbled Muslim might.

Refrain:
Hail to you for this, oh Catherine!
Gentle mother to us all!
