Anadolu Benim [English translation]

How could I kiss your dainty lips,

Which never got hurt before,

How could I hold your lilly hands,

Which never suffered pain in the life,

I opened my eyes,

In a hot summer day,

In my mom's warm arms,

In a dusty country road,

Look! And smell!

I'm the Anatolia, I'm the mountains,

I'm the worker, I'm the sufferer,

I'm the last hope, I am the peace,

I am, I am, I am!

I'm the Anatolia, I'm the mountains,

I'm the worker, I'm the sufferer,

I'm the last hope, I am the peace,

I am, I am, I am!

Although, you are not like that,

They raised you like a princess,

You never touched to dirt,

You never fell love in with it,

I opened my eyes,

In a hot summer day,

In my mom's warm arms,

In a dusty country road,

Look! And smell!

I'm the Anatolia, I'm the mountains,

I'm the worker, I'm the sufferer,

I'm the last hope, I am the peace,

I am, I am, I am!

I'm the Anatolia, I'm the mountains,

I'm the worker, I'm the sufferer,

I'm the last hope, I am the peace,

I am, I am, I am!

Because of the poverty,

I couldn't even have a pair of shoe,

My Lord, how is this possible,

When I got them, I used to run in the,

Dirt, with amity of the dirt,

I made toys with the mud,

My skin got it's color from dirt,

Don't look at my browness, I got it later, 1

I'm the Anatolia, I'm the mountains,

I'm the worker, I'm the sufferer,

I'm the last hope, I am the peace,

I am, I am, I am!
