Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The lyrics of the national anthem.
Old value:: Tukaric: Ben ezelden beridir hür Yaşadım, hür yaşarım. Hangi çılgın bana zincir vuracakmış? Şaşarım! Kükremiş sel gibiyim, bendimi çiğner aşarım; Yırtarım dağları, enginlere sığmam, taşarım! Kalopian: Écho apó amnimonéfton chrónon ézise doreán, zo doreán. Ti trelós tha me válei se alysídes? Eímai ékpliktos! Eímai san éna vrychátai plimmýra, boró ypérvasi bendemı masáte? Éschisa ta vouná, pou tairiázei sti michaní, pétres mou! Luthorian: I have been free since the beginning and forever shall be so. What madman shall put me in chains! I defy the very idea! I'm like the roaring flood; trampling my banks and overcoming my body, I'll tear apart mountains, exceed the expanses and still gush out!
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!) |

| Jakania! Jakania! (Luthori) Jakania! Jakania! How you glimmer to me! What beautiful shores you have - their depth that makes us free! The light has came that casts away despair - it overthrows tyranny! Jakania! Jakania! Your beauty is so clear! The shine you behold of a new light - it casts away fear! The dark has left and new arise, Only the good do you comprise. Jakania! Jakania! Blessed be the free! Bless our mighty nation so that all may hear our decree! Be strong, be proud, lift up our souls! Look to the endless horizon and see our forces proud! We are the force of good and justice - let it be known! Jakaniye! Jakaniye! (Turjak) Jakaniye! Jakaniye! Bunu bana nasıl glimmer! Ne güzel sahilleri var - bizi özgür kılan onların derinliği! Işık uzakta atmalarını umutsuzluk geldi - bu zulüm alaşağı! Jakaniye! Jakaniye! Güzelliğiniz çok açık! Yeni bir ışık seyretmek parlaklık - bu korku uzakta atmalarını! Sen oluşturan yapmak sadece iyi koyu terk etti ve yeni ortaya çıkmaktadır. Jakaniye! Jakaniye! Jakaniye özgür olmak! Tüm kararını duyabilirsiniz ki bizim güçlü milleti korusun! Guclu ol, ruhlarımızı yukarı kaldırın, gurur! bakınız ve sonsuz ufka kuvvetlerimizi gurur bakın! Biz iyi ve adalet kuvvet vardır - bu bilinen izin! |
