Lyrics and translation Koro - İstiklal Marşı

İstiklal Marşı

Korkma, sönmez bu şafaklarda yüzen al sancak
Sönmeden yurdumun üstünde tüten en son ocak
O benim, milletimin yıldızıdır parlayacak
O benimdir, o benim milletimin ancak
Çatma kurban olayım çehreni ey Nazlı Hilal
Kahraman ırkıma bir gül, ne bu şiddet bu celal
Sana olmaz dökülen kanlarımız sonra helal
Hakkıdır, Hakk'a tapan milletimin istiklal

Independence March

Fear not, this scarlet banner that floats in these horizons will not fade
That very last hearth that's smoking still over my nation will not fade
That is my star, it will shine, illuminating my people
That is mine, that is my people's alone
Frown not, oh my gentle Crescent, I'd gladly be sacrificed for you
A rose to my valiant people, why this violence, this fury
The blood we shed cannot be justified to you hereafter
Independence is the right of my people who pray to God
