O‘zbekiston Respublikasining Davlat madhiyasi
Uzbekistan's national anthem uses the melody of its former Soviet republic anthem. After gaining independence in 1991, new lyrics by Abdulla Aripov were adopted with the existing music in 1992.
Uzbekistan, as a Soviet republic, was granted its own anthem for use within the USSR.
Uzbekistan declared independence from the Soviet Union.
Abdulla Aripov wrote new lyrics for the existing Soviet-era melody to reflect the independent nation.
The anthem, with its revised lyrics, was officially adopted as the National Anthem of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
The national anthem of Uzbekistan uses the exact same melody as its predecessor from when it was a republic within the Soviet Union.
