غرق بولمیش ریحانه چولی ترکمنیڭ- Hak sylamyş bardyr onuň saýasy,
Çyrpynşar çölünde neri, maýasy,
Reň-be-reň gül açar ýaşyl ýaýlasy,
Gark bolmuş reýhana çöli türkmeniň. - The Almighty acclaimed this land. His shadow is with us.
A sandstorm in its desert, male camel and female,
Colour upon colour of flowers flourish on the green plains,
The Turkmen desert discoasts in fragrance.
