- Anthem Lyrics English
Azerbaijan! Azerbaijan! Cherished land of valiant sons, We are ready to give our heart and life for you. All of us can give our blood for you. Live happily with your three-colored banner. Live happily with your three-colored banner. Thousands of souls were sacrificed for you. Your chest became a battlefield. Soldiers who deprived themselves of their lives, Each of them became a hero. May you become a flourishing garden. We are ready to give our heart and soul for you. A thousand and one endearments are in my heart. And uphold your honor. To raise your banner And uphold your honor, All the youth are eager. Cherished land, Cherished land. Azerbaijan! Azerbaijan! Azerbaijan! Azerbaijan!
