Fatherland


Fatherland is the nation of one's "fathers", "forefathers" or "patriarchs". It can be viewed as a nationalist concept, insofar as it relates to nations.

Who is that disgusting "Greek" claiming the otherwise?

In that case, you National Anthem is this one....

Glory to the Fatherland that knew how to follow,
over the blue of the sea the path of the sun.

Thank you "Kill-more-GCs-Gabira" ... and ergo this thread is NOT about a "Cypriot Anthem" but a Turkish one!

Turkey has its own National Anthem.

Turkish Cyps and Greek Cyp's need their own encompassing Anthem.

But the Turkish Cypriots already have their own 'National Anthem'....

We do have a TC national anthem.

MÜCAHİTLER MARŞI

Bir kıvılcım parlıyor
Mücahidin içinde
Türklük ateşidir bu
Yoktur dünya yüzünde

Kıbrıs yunan olmaz
Türk Mücahit duramaz
Ya Türk Kıbrıs var olur
Ya mücahit Yaşamaz

Gelse Yunan dizilse
Dünya peşinden gelse
Mücahitler ölmeden
Bu topraklar verilmez

Kıbrıs Yunan olmaz
Türk Mücahit duramaz
Ya Türk Kıbrıs var olur
Ya Mücahit Yaşamaz


In Lurucina we used to sing it with some arabesk belly dancing tune.

English translation of Turkish National Anthem. I though some of the more fanatic GC may find it an interesting read.

Fear not! For the crimson flag that proudly ripples in this glorious twilight, shall not fade,
Before the last fiery hearth that is ablaze within my nation is extinguished.
For That is the star of my nation, and it will forever shine;
It is mine; and solely belongs to my valiant nation.
Frown not, I beseech you, oh thou coy crescent,
But smile upon my heroic race! Why the anger, why the rage?
This blood of ours which we shed for you shall not be blessed otherwise;
For Freedom is the absolute right of my God-worshiping nation.
I have been free since the beginning and forever shall be so.
What madman shall put me in chains! I defy the very idea!
I'm like the roaring flood; powerful and independent,
I'll tear apart mountains, exceed the heavens and still gush out! and put some flags on them.
The lands of the West may be armored with walls of steel,
But I have borders guarded by the mighty chest of a believer.
Recognize your innate strength, my friend! And think: how can this fiery faith ever be killed,
By that battered, single-fanged monster you call "civilization"? ³
My friend! Leave not my homeland to the hands of villainous men!
Render your chest as armor and your body as trench! Stop this disgraceful rush!
For soon shall come the joyous days of divine promise...
Who knows? Perhaps tomorrow? Perhaps even sooner!
View not the soil you tread on as mere earth - recognize it!
And think about the shroudless thousands who lie so nobly beneath you.
You're the noble son of a martyr, take shame, hurt not your ancestor!
Unhand not, even when you're promised worlds, this paradise of a homeland.
What man would not die for this heavenly piece of land?
Martyrs would gush out should one simply squeeze the soil! Martyrs!
May God take my life, all my loved ones and possessions from me if He will,
But may He not deprive me of my one true homeland for the world.
Oh glorious God, the sole wish of my pain-stricken heart is that,
No heathen's hand should ever touch the bosom of my sacred Temples.
These adhans, whose shahadahs are the foundations of my religion,
May their noble sound last loud and wide over my eternal homeland.
For only then, shall my fatigued tombstone, if there is one, prostrate ⁴ a thousand times in ecstasy,
And tears of fiery blood shall flow out of my every wound,
And my lifeless body shall gush out from the earth like an eternal spirit,
Perhaps only then, shall I peacefully ascend and at long last reach the heavens.
So ripple and wave like the bright dawning sky, oh thou glorious crescent,
So that our every last drop of blood may finally be blessed and worthy!
Neither you nor my race shall ever be extinguished!
For freedom is the absolute right of my ever-free flag;
For independence is the absolute right of my God-worshiping nation!
