Slava Ukraini! (Ukrainian: Слава Україні!, lit.'Glory to Ukraine!') is a 2022 song composed by the Norwegian composer Marcus Paus. It is based on the worldwide use of the expression "Glory to Ukraine" (Ukrainian: Слава Україні, romanizedSlava Ukraini) as a symbol of resistance and solidarity during the 2022 Russian invasion, and is loosely inspired by a motif from the opening of the national anthem of Ukraine.
