Lyrics:
One day, lived a mighty Khan
He is well known by the name Altai
His most prized treasure, to be told - Katun’, his daughter, proud and bold
Katun’ was proud, strong and free
One day she met a young man Biy
They fell in love, once and for all
And day by day love was getting strong
Khan Altai decided to find a suitor to Katun’
She stood atop a hill, no one could compare with her
Countless suitors passed. But only one man, wise and true she loved
With him her heart and soul doth grew
In Altai land
Two mighty rivers were combined
In Altai land
Through the ages and a time
In Altai land
The legend lives in our mind
In Altai land
Where rugged mountains grandly stand
Angered, Khan made a decree: “When the sun touched land and sea”
He’ll choose a groom to Katun’
And As he said, shall it be
But Katun’s heart could not bear that fate father’s choice
She ran away from the father’s home before the sun rose
When Altai awoke and saw his daughter ran away
He said that first who bring her back will marry her the day
In Altai land
Two mighty rivers were combined
In Altai land
Through the ages and a time
In Altai land
The legend lives in our mind
In Altai land
Where rugged mountains grandly stand
The servant chased after her with all their might
She ran so fast, she’d not give up without a fight
A thunderous sound of horse hooves rolled through the steppes and a mountain’s hills
One strong man, a bogatyr, he almost caught her, he was near
As the pursuit near, she didn’t see another way
She transformed into a river, swift and free to sway
And turning into a river too, Biy rushed toward Katun’
As a symbol of undying love they’ve merged into a river Ob’
In Altai land
Two mighty rivers were combined
In Altai land
Through the ages and a time
In Altai land
The legend lives in our mind
In Altai land
Where rugged mountains grandly stand
