Lyrics:
CHOIR
Türkmenbaşyň guran beýik binasy
Berkarar döwletim, jigerim - janym.
Başlaryň täji sen, diller senasy
Dünýä dursun, sen dur, Türkmenistanym!
I
Janym gurban sana, erkana ýurdum
Mert pederleň ruhy bardyr könülde.
Bitarap, Garaşsyz topragyn nurdur
Baýdagyn belentdir dünýan önünde.
CHOIR
II
Gardaşdyr tireler, amandyr iller
Owal-ahyr birdir bizin ganymyz.
Harasatlar almaz, syndyrmaz siller
Nesiller döş gerip gorar şanymyz.
CHOIR
III
Arkamdyr bu daglar, penamdyr düzler
Ykbalym, namysym, togabym, Watan!
Sana şek ýetirse, kör bolsun gözler
Geçmişim, geljegim, dowamym, Watan!
