I Commemorate Atatürk

Ahmet Ege ARABACIOĞLU

The world collapsed ; the sun went out . Let God weep , let men weep . The World has entered a starless night . Let friends weep , let strangers weep .

Such a man was born . He came and changed the course of the World . He left , how the World stopped . May his name be remembered at all times .
We missed your blue eyes when you were gone . Don ’ t let the seasons be in vain ! They can bring nothing like him . Seasons , years , days , weeks cries .
I am thinking of Mustafa Kemal . Boy on a horse with a mane of flame . His blue eyes burning bright . We miss your blue eyes . You are not dead , my ancestor . You are still alive . You are in our hearts . You will live in the souls .
A sun rose in Salonika . Its name was victory . His name was Mustafa Kemal . We will keep you alive .
