National Anthem of the Republic of Azerbaijan (Azərbaycan Marşı | Azerbaijan March)

Azərbaycan Marşı (Azerbaijan March or March of Azerbaijan) is the national anthem of Azerbaijan (The Republic of Azerbaijan). The music was composed by Uzeyir Hajibeyov, with lyrics by poet Ahmad Javad. The government officially adopted the anthem in 1920 with the passage of the decree, "On the State Hymn of the Republic of Azerbaijan." In 1992, after the fall of the Soviet Union, Azerbaijan's government officially restored Azərbaycan Marşı as the national anthem.

The government of Azerbaijan has also officially declared the national anthem to be "the sacred symbol of the Azerbaijan state, its independence and unity."

Since 2006, a fragment of the lyrics from the national anthem is depicted on the obverse of the Azerbaijani 5 manat banknote. In 2011, to mark the 20th anniversary of Azerbaijan's independence from Soviet rule, the government issued a stamp celebrating the anthem.
