Currently this is in Georgian language and in Mkhedruli script; that should be kept, but there should also be:

1. transliteration into Latin script
2. translation into English

Newcomer to Wikipedia here. Tavisupleba actually means freedom. There is a translation here, including transliteration: http://david.national-anthems.net/ge-txt.htm, not sure about the copyright implications. Judging by the marginal Georgian I learned it seems the transliteration is correct, albeit not scientific, i.e. it does not reflect the highly complex Georgian consonant sytem.

Thanks. I've dropped David a note to ask what he knows about the copyright status of the transliteration and translation. -- Jmabel 18:23, Aug 25, 2004 (UTC)

OK. I've had a couple of emails back and forth now with David Kendall of national-anthems.net. He says no problem. The transliteration and translation were done for his site, and there was no intent of limiting re-use, so we are welcome to it. Thanks Tribute2jimmyk for calling it to my attention, thanks David for the permission. -- Jmabel 04:51, Aug 26, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Recording needed

We used to link this to an MP3 file as an external link, but the link http://www.parliament.ge/GENERAL/C_D/gimn.mp3 "went dead" (404 error). Does anyone know of something to replace it? -- Jmabel | Talk 07:55, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

Added two onto the article, both are PD. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 23:52, 3 April 2006 (UTC)

Thanks. - Jmabel | Talk 04:24, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

I have more recordings on hand, but I think these two are fine, since they come from known government sources. Jmabel, see me on on MSN or email if you wish to have them. User:Zscout370 ^{(Return Fire)} 06:32, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Added a YouTube link

I found this music video version of the anthem posted on YouTube.com. It looks like something officially produced by the government. But I don't know anything about the story behind this video. Anyone else know? Inkan1969 07:22, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
