Answer
The National anthem of Russia is “Gimn Rossiyskoy Federatsii” which means in English “National Anthem of the Russian Federation”.
Russia’s anthem lyrics were written by Sergey Vladimirovich MIKHALKOV and the music was written by Aleksandr Vasilyevich ALEKSANDROV.
In 2000, Russia Adopted The Tune Of The Anthem Of The Former Soviet Union (Composed In 1939); The Lyrics, Also Adopted In 2000, Were Written By The Same Person Who Authored The Soviet Lyrics In 1943.

Russian anthem lyrics (English translation)
Russia ג€“ our sacred homeland,
Russia ג€“ our beloved country.
A mighty will, great glory ג€“
These are your heritage for all time!
Chorus:
Be glorious, our free Fatherland,
Age-old union of fraternal peoples,
Ancestor-given wisdom of the people!
Be glorious, our country! We are proud of you!
From the southern seas to the polar lands
Spread are our forests and fields.
You are unique in the world, one of a kind ג€“
This native land protected by God!
Chorus
Wide spaces for dreams and for living
Are opened for us by the coming years
Our loyalty to the Fatherland gives us strength.
Thus it was, thus it is and thus it always will be!
Chorus
