"Death or Freedom" (Chechen: Ӏожалла я маршо, romanized: Joƶalla ya marşo) was the national anthem of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria, a former partially recognized separatist state in the North Caucasus from 1991 to 2000. The music was composed in 1991 by either Ali Dimayev or Umar Beksultanov, and the lyrics were written by Abuzar Aydamirov.[1]

The Dudayev-era anthem replaced "My Checheno-Ingushetia", the anthem of the Checheno-Ingush Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic, following the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Afterwards, "Joƶalla ya marşo" was replaced by "Shatlak's Song".[1]
