Dievs, svētī Latviju! (God Bless Latvia) is the national anthem of Latvia.

Dievs, svētī Latviju,
Mūs' dārgo tēviju,
Svētī jel Latviju,
Ak, svētī jel to!
Kur latvju meitas zied,
Kur latvju dēli dzied,
Laid mums tur laimē diet,
Mūs' Latvijā!

[edit] English Translation

God, bless Latvia,
Our dear fatherland,
Bless Latvia,
Oh, bless it!
Where Latvian girls flow,
Where Latvian boys sing,
Let us go to where happiness is,
Our Latvia!

Words and music by Kārlis Baumanis (Baumaņu Kārlis, 1834-1904).
