Anthem of the People’s Republic of Kampuchea
"Anthem of the People's Republic of Kampuchea" (Khmer: បទចម្រៀងនៃសាធារណរដ្ឋប្រជាមានិតកម្ពុជា, Batchamrieng ney Satheareanaroat Pracheameanit Kampuchea [ɓɑtcɑmriəŋ nɨj saːtʰiərĕənarŏət prɑːciəmiənit kampuciə]) was the national anthem of the People's Republic of Kampuchea from 1979 to 1989. It was composed by Keo Chinda and Chy Saopea. While Vietnam and most Communist governments recognized the People's Republic of Kampuchea during its existence, the Khmer Rouge, together with the monarchists and Khmer People's National Liberation Front, formed the Coalition Government of Democratic Kampuchea that continued to use the anthem of Democratic Kampuchea. It was this government-in-exile that was recognized by China, North Korea, and most Western Bloc governments and the United Nations; as such, many Western sources continued to list "Dap Prampi Mesa Chokchey" as being the Cambodian national anthem until the restoration of the monarchy in 1993

[edit]ពលរដ្ឋកម្ពុជាជាកម្លាំងប្ដូរផ្ដាច់
សច្ចាកម្ទេចអស់ពួកបច្ចាមិត្ត
តាំងចិត្តសាមគ្គីទើបមានមហិទ្ធិឫទ្ធិ
ស៊ូប្ដូរជីវិតបង្ហូរឈាមប្ដូរយកជ័យ ។
កងទ័ពកម្ពុជាពុះពារក្លាហានសម្រុក
ឧបសគ្គរាំងមុខឆ្លងកាត់សម្រេចបាន
កម្ទេចខ្មាំងចង្រៃពូជសាមាន្យ
នាំសេរីថ្កើងថ្កានជូនប្រជាជន ។
វីរកម្ពុជាបុត្រមោះមុតក្នុងសង្គ្រាម
ប្ដេជ្ញាសងឈាមនឹងខ្មាំងសត្រូវ
ទង់ជ័យប្រាសាទពណ៌ឈាមខ្ពស់សន្ធៅ
នាំជាតិឈានទៅសាងសុខក្សេមក្សាន្ត ។
