The regional anthem of the city of Rîbnița, known as the "Hymn of Rîbnița" (Russian: Гимн Рыбнице, romanized: Gimn Rybnitsy), is the anthem of Rîbnița and the Rîbnița District, in Transnistria. It was composed by Alexander Tokarev and selected by the city council in 2013 to become Rîbnița's anthem to commemorate its 75th anniversary as a locality with official city status.[2] It was officially adopted in 2014.
The Hymn of Rîbnița is unique among Transnistria's anthems, as it is only composed in Russian, and not trilingual like the official state anthem.

English translation
На днестровском берегу зеленом
Расцветал наш город много лет.
И теперь шумят над ним знамена
Боевых и трудовых побед. (2 раза)
On the bank of the green Dniester lands,
Lies the city that has been flourished by many years.
By multiple banners now holding it,
Battle and labor shall reign. (2 times)
Рыбница – это наш город надежды, Рыбница – зарево светлой мечты, Рыбница – в завтрашний день, как и прежде, Ведут твои дороги и мосты.
Rîbnița - This is our hopeful city Rîbnița - Let their glowing dreams fly Rîbnița - Again, reaching the future, Lead us with your roads and bridges.
Отшумели грозы над землею,
Ты полна свершений, новых сил.
И крыла расправил над тобою
В небесах Архангел Михаил. (2 раза)
If there's storm across the land,
You're full of achievements and forces.
Archangel Michael will spread their wings above you,
In heaven's reign. (2 times)
Ты живешь единою судьбою
С приднестровской дружною семьей.
Город наш, гордимся мы тобою
И для нас ты вечно молодой. (2 раза)
You're living a common destiny
In the Transistrian family.
We are proud of our city
And you're forever young in our minds. (2 times)
