Lyrics
[Intro]
In the shadows of the Caucasus, where legends take their flight,
A land of ancient magic, under Ararat's might.
[Verse 1]
In the heart of the highlands, where the rivers gently flow,
Lies Armenia's beating heart, where history's seeds do grow.
Yerevan, the city's glow, casting warmth in every street,
With a thousand years of stories in the stones beneath your feet.
[Pre-Chorus]
Mountains stretch to kiss the sky,
Echoes of our past, they never die.
[Chorus]
Armenia, your spirit strong, in the music, in the song,
Land of beauty, land of dreams, where the past and future gleam.
Armenia, rise with pride, in the voices, in the eyes,
From the valleys to the skies, your legacy never dies.
[Verse 2]
Through the whispers of the ages, tales of struggle, tales of might,
From the cradle of the apricot to the vigil's hopeful light.
Khachkars stand as silent guards, with their carvings rich and bold,
Tales of strength and resurrection on these stones, a world of old.
[Chorus]
Armenia, your spirit strong, in the music, in the song,
Land of beauty, land of dreams, where the past and future gleam.
Armenia, rise with pride, in the voices, in the eyes,
From the valleys to the skies, your legacy never dies.
[Bridge]
From lavash baking in the clay, to the dances of the night,
A tapestry of cultures, woven in the morning light.
The echoes of Komitas, in every heartfelt note,
A symphony of resilience, forever does it float.
[Final Chorus]
Armenia, your heart's true song, through the centuries so long,
Land of courage, land of grace, in every smile, in every face.
Armenia, rise anew, with the morning's golden hue,
In our hearts, on this earth, your story will shine through.
[Outro]
In the shadows of the Caucasus, where your legends take their flight,
Armenia, the eternal, under ancient Ararat's light.
