Türkiye (Don't Say Turkey) Lyrics

In the land where the east meets the west

A nation with stories to be expressed

Known for its history and culture so deep

Türkiye, a land where legends sleep

From ancient empires to bustling bazaars

Each corner filled with tales under the stars

Türkiye, the name that rings true

Pronounced with pride in the skies so blue

Rocky mountains and seas so grand

Türkiye, a nation that stands

From the shores of the Aegean to the fields of Cappadocia

Türkiye's beauty is a harmonious aria

Where mosque domes and minarets touch the sky

Melding past and present as time goes by

The call to prayer echoes through the air

In Türkiye's soul, a spirit rare

Türkiye, the name that rings true

Pronounced with pride in the skies so blue

Rocky mountains and seas so grand

Türkiye, a nation that stands

From Istanbul's bustling streets at night

To the ancient ruins bathed in sunlight

Türkiye's heart beats with a rhythm bold

In its mosaic of stories untold

A fusion of cultures, a tapestry of grace

Türkiye, a journey through time and space

Türkiye, the name that rings true

Pronounced with pride in the skies so blue

Rocky mountains and seas so grand

Türkiye, a nation that stands

So here's to Türkiye, a land so fine

Where history and modernity entwine

In the rock ballad of this ancient land

Türkiye's spirit rocks and stands

Don't say Turkey

So here's to Türkiye, a land so fine

In the rock ballad of this ancient land

Türkiye's spirit rocks and stands

Don't say Turkey
