The State emblem presents the image of the raising sun over the flourishing valley surrounded by a garland compound of the wheat ears from the right side and branches of cotton with open cotton bolls from the left side. The eight -angled star is placed in the upper of the Emblem symbolizing the unity and confirmation of the republic. The crescent and star inside the eight-angled are the sacred symbols of the Moslems. The legendary bird Semurg with the stretched wings is placed in the center of the Emblem as the symbol of the national Renaissance. The entire composition aims on expression of the desire of the Uzbek people for peace, happiness and prosperity. Beneath the composition there goes the inscription in the Uzbek language 'Uzbekiston' written on the ribbon in the national colors of the flag of the Republic.
