National Flag
The National Flag of Kazakhstan is a rectangular sky-blue cloth. In the center, there is a golden sun with rays, beneath which a soaring steppe eagle is depicted. Along the flagstaff, there is a vertical strip with a national ornamental pattern.
The flag symbolizes peace, unity, freedom, and aspirations for development. The author of the flag is Shaken Niyazbekov.
State Emblem
The State Emblem has a circular shape. Its central element is the shanyrak, symbolizing a common home and unity. From it, uyks radiate like sun rays. On both sides, there are winged mythical horses, with a star at the top and the inscription "QAZAQSTAN" at the bottom.
The emblem reflects unity, stability, and progress.
National Anthem
The National Anthem is the country's main musical symbol, expressing patriotism and national pride.
The current anthem was adopted in 2006 based on the popular song "Menin Kazakstanym". The music was composed by Shamshi Kaldayakov, and the lyrics were written by Zhumeken Nazhimedenov and Nursultan Nazarbayev.
1. Altyn ku'n aspany, Altyn da'n dalasy, Erliktin' dastany, Elime qaras'y! Ejelden er degen, Dan'qymyz s'yqty g'oi'. Namysyn bermegen, Qazag'ym myqty g'oi'! Menin' elim, menin' elim, Gu'lin' bolyp egilemin, Jyryn' bolyp to'gilemin, elim! Ty'g'an jerim menin' - Qazaqstanym! 2. Urpaqqa jol as'qan, Ken' bai'taq jerim bar. Birligi jarasqan, Ta'y'elsiz elim bar. Qarsy alg'an y'aqytty, Ma'n'gilik dosyndai', Bizdin' el baqytty, Bizdin' el osyndai'! Menin' elim, menin' elim, Gu'lin' bolyp egilemin, Jyryn' bolyp to'gilemin, elim! Ty'g'an jerim menin' - Qazaqstanym!
