The lyrics were originally written by the first president of Turkmenistan, Saparmurat Niyazov (also known as Turkmenbashi, Turkmen: Türkmenbaşy/Түркменбашы). Niyazov died on 21 December 2006, and two years after his death the reference to Turkmenbashi in the chorus was replaced with the people,^[2] among other minor changes to the lyrics.

Turkmen lyrics	Turkmen Cyrillic	English translation
Janym gurban saňa, erkana ýurdum Mert pederleň ruhy bardyr könülde. Bitarap, Garaşsyz topragyň nurdur Baýdagyň belentdir dünýan önünde. Halkyň guran baky beýik binasy Berkarar döwletim, jigerim - janym. Başlaryň täji sen, diller senasy Dünýä dursun, sen dur, Türkmenistanym! Gardaşdyr tireler, amandyr iller Owal-ahyr birdir bizin ganymyz. Harasatlar almaz, syndyrmaz siller Nesiller döş gerip gorar şanymyz. Halkyň guran baky beýik binasy Berkarar döwletim, jigerim - janym. Başlaryň täji sen, diller senasy, Dünýä dursun, sen dur, Türkmenistanym!	Җаным гурбан саңа, эркана юрдум Мерт педерлең рухы бардыр көнүлде. Битарап, Гарашсыз топрагың нурдур Байдагың белентдир дүнян өнүнде. Халкың гуран бакы бейик бинасы Беркарар дөвлетим, җигерим - җаным. Башларың тәҗи сен, диллер сенасы Дүнйә дурсун, сен дур, Түркменистаным! Гардашдыр тирелер, амандыр иллер Овал-ахыр бирдир бизин ганымыз. Харасатлар алмаз, сындырмаз силлер Несиллер дөш герип горар шанымыз. Халкың гуран бакы бейик бинасы Беркарар дөвлетим, җигерим - җаным. Башларың тәҗи сен, диллер сенасы, Дүнйә дурсун, сен дур, Түркменистаным!	I am ready to give life for our native hearth The spirit of ancestors descendants are famous for. My land is sacred, my flag flies in the world A symbol of the great neutral country flies, The forever great creation of the people The native land, the sovereign state Forever, the light and song of the soul, Long live and prosper, Turkmenistan! My nation is united and in veins of tribes Our ancestors' blood, undying flows. Storms and misfortunes of times are not dreadful for us, Let us increase fame and honour. The forever great creation of the people Native land, the sovereign state Forever, the light and song of the soul, Long live and prosper, Turkmenistan!
