-
Min izāmō is the national anthem of the Livonians. The song was written by Kōrli Stalte (1870–1947), a poet and spiritual leader of Livonians, to a melody composed by Fredrik Pacius (the same melody is used for national anthems of Finland and Estonia). It is written in the Livonian language. Translated, the title of the song means "My Fatherland".

Ai tēvzeme, ai dzimtene
un mīļā jūra te,
kur krastā sīkstas, šalcošas
vēl vecās priedes līgojas.
Vismīļākā man pasaulē
tu, dārgā tēvzeme.Ai tēvzeme, ai dzimtene
un mīļā jūra te,
no kuras viļņi ceļu rod
šurp smilšu krastam muti dot.
Vismīļākā man pasaulē
tu, dārgā tēvzeme.Ai tēvzeme, ai dzimtene
un mīļā jūra te,
kur zvejnieki vien dzīvot var,
kas dienā, naktī viļņus ar.
Vismīļākā man pasaulē
tu, dārgā tēvzeme.Ai tēvzeme, ai dzimtene
un mīļā jūra te,
kur jūrmalnieku valoda
vissvētākā vēl dzirdama.

tu, dārgā tēvzeme.English

You are the beloved shore,
Where on the shore grow
Pines still old, tough.

Where waves roll from sea
And give a kiss to shore.

The place where fishermen live,
Who are on the sea day and night.

Where the holy language is still spoken
