Grom pobedy, razdavaysya!

The anthem Grom Pobedy, Rasdawaisja! (Russian Гром победы, раздавайся - dt Let sound the cry of victory! ) was an unofficial Russian national anthem of the late 18th and early 19th century. The words come from the leading poets of that time, Gavriil Derzhavin, the melody to compose Osip Kozlovsky in 1791. The song sings about the capture of the Turkish fortress Ismail on the Danube Delta by Alexander Vasilyevich Suvorov, which led to the end of the Fifth Russian-Turkish War. The way is a polonaise.
