Janym gurban sana, erkana ýurdum Mert pederleň ruhy bardyr könülde. Bitarap, Garaşsyz topragyn nurdur Baýdagyn belentdir dünýan önünde. Halkyň guran baky beýik binasy Berkarar döwletim, jigerim - janym. Başlaryň täji sen, diller senasy Dünýä dursun, sen dur, Türkmenistanym! Gardaşdyr tireler, amandyr iller Owal-ahyr birdir bizin ganymyz. Harasatlar almaz, syndyrmaz siller Nesiller döş gerip gorar şanymyz. Halkyň guran baky beýik binasy Berkarar döwletim, jigerim - janym. Başlaryň täji sen, diller senasy, Dünýä dursun, sen dur, Türkmenistanym! |
I am ready to give life for native hearth The spirit of ancestors descendants are famous for My land is sacred. My flag flies in the world A symbol of the great neutral country flies. The forever great creation of the people Native land, sovereign state Turkmenistan, light and song of soul Long live and prosper for ever and ever! My nation is united and in veins of tribes Ancestors' blood, undying flows Storms and misfortunes of times are not dreadful for us Let us increase fame and honour! The forever great creation of the people Native land, sovereign state Turkmenistan, light and song of soul Long live and prosper for ever and ever! |
