We all have a hoarse voice... do not leave

our minarets with no calls to prayer, my God!

Either bring us those who make honey

or do not just leave us with no hive, my God!

Minarets have no mahya [a string of lights set up between two minarets to flash a short text, often featuring moral or religious themes]...

Do not take the Milky Way away from our skies, my God!

Do not leave this country, which was kneaded by Muslims,

with no Muslims, my God”

Give us strength... Do not leave the field of jihad

with no pahlevan [wrestler], My God!

Do not leave these masses, who look for a hero,

with no hero, My God!

Let us know how to resist the foe,

do not leave us lifeless, my God!

On the path to tomorrows, do not leave

our years with no Ramadan [month], my God!

Either disperse your herd, if left unattended,

or do not leave them with no shepherd, my God!

Do not leave us, O, with no love, no water, no air

and with no country, my God!
