The State Anthem of the Uzbek SSR[lower-alpha 1] was the national anthem of Uzbekistan when it was a republic of the Soviet Union and known as the Uzbek SSR.
Background
The anthem was used 1947 to 1991. The music was composed by Mutal Burkhanov, and the words were written by Timur Fattah and Turab Tula. The anthem (like those of the Tajik SSR and Turkmen SSR) opens with a salute to the Russian people, while the Uzbeks themselves are not actually mentioned until the fourth line.
The melody is used in the current national anthem of Uzbekistan, with different lyrics. It is one of the four remaining post-Soviet countries, along with Russia, Belarus, and Tajikistan, to continuously use their Soviet-era anthems with different lyrics. The Soviet-era lyrics were removed after the Uzbek SSR changed its name to the Republic of Uzbekistan and declared independence on 31 August 1991, when Abdulla Oripov wrote new lyrics adopted in 1992.
