Inno Nazionale Laos
Laotian National Anthem Lyrics
ເພງຊາດລາວ (Pheng Xat Lao)
ຊາດລາວຕັ້ງແຕ່ໃດມາ
ລາວທຸກທົ່ວຫນ້າເຊີດຊູສຸດໃຈ
ຮ່ວມແຮງຮ່ວມຈິດຮ່ວມໃຈ
ສາມັກຄີກັນເປັນກຳລັງດຽວ
ເດັດດ່ຽວພ້ອມກັນກ້າວຫນ້າ
ບູຊາຊູກຽດຂອງລາວ
ສົ່ງເສີມໃຊ້ສິດເປັນເຈົ້າ
ລາວທຸກຊົນເຜົ່າສະເໝີພາບກັນ
ບໍ່ໃຫ້ພວກຈັກກະພັດ
ແລະພວກຂາຍຊາດເຂົ້າມາລົບກວນ
ລາວທັງມວນຊູເອກະລາດ
ອິດສະຫລະພາບຂອງຊາດລາວໄວ້
ຕັດສິນໃຈສູ້ຊີງເອົາໄຊ
ພາຊາດກ້າວໄປສູ່ຄວາມວັດທະນາ
ENGLISH TRANSLATION
Hymn of the Lao People
For all time, the Lao people
Have glorified their Fatherland,
United in heart,
Spirit and vigor as one.
Resolutely moving forwards,
Respecting and increasing the dignity of the Lao people
And proclaiming the right to be their own masters.
The Lao people of all origins are equal
And will no longer allow imperialists
And traitors to harm them.
The entire people will safeguard the independence
And the freedom of the Lao nation.
They are resolved to struggle for victory
In order to lead the nation to prosperity.
Fu composto nel 1941 dal dottor Thongdy Sounthonevichit (1905-1968) e adottato come inno nazionale del Regno del Laos nel 1947. Il testo originale fu cambiato dopo l'instaurazione della repubblica popolare democratica nel 1975, con nuove parole scritte da Sisana Sisane.
