İhtarname [English translation]

Sender, Turkish nation

Receiver, you, you, you!

Subject, oh you know so well...

Desert, desert, desert, desert, desert, desert babo

No water, no road, no cure!

Sand, sand, sand, sand, sand, sand, babo

Trouble's like sand but there's no cure!

We gave up on heaven,

There's no water to wash us when we die

While we, we, we, we, we, we, babo

Are more than you in numbers

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, babo

Enough of this, no more!

Ox carts can't crash,

Traffic won't kill me!

Come, master, come, come, come

Be my sultan, come, come, come

Come, master, come, come, come

Be my sultan, come...
