Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: .Arise ye workers from your slumbers Arise ye prisoners of want For reason in revolt now thunders And at last ends the age of cant. Away with all your superstitions Servile masses arise, arise We’ll change henceforth the old tradition And spurn the dust to win the prize
Current:
Milli Marşı (National March) Korkma! Sönmez bu şafaklarda yüzen al sancak, Sönmeden yurdumun üstünde tüten en son ocak. O benim milletimin yıldızıdır, parlayacak; O benimdir, o benim milletimindir 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. (Fear not; For the crimson banner that proudly ripples in this glorious dawn, shall not fade, Before the last fiery hearth that is ablaze within my homeland is extinguished. For that is the star of my people, and it will forever shine; It is mine; and solely belongs to my valiant nation. Frown not, I beseech you, oh thou coy crescent! Smile upon my heroic nation! Why the anger, why the rage? Our blood which we shed for you shall not be worthy otherwise; For freedom is the absolute right of my God-worshipping nation!) |
Proposed:
Our Jakania, gentle country, Take your place in the concert of nations, Acceding to independence with honourable intentions. Repeat, O World, my song. Mother Jakania we salute Thee! Plenteous in prosperity, Thou. Builders of present, you too, join forces Each day for the task stronger in unity. Oh my country, Oh my country. And a people strong and healthy, Full of godly reverent fear. O Republic, And the free ones of the world reply: To the great Jakanian people, hail! |
