homeland
can continue to exist only because it is always remembered.
It
is a very sacred duty upon you to love and protect the father’s and
the mother’s homeland and your independence in the way you would
protect your most precious belongings.
Our
fathers have spilled lots of blood on the way to independence. Oguz Han,
Gorkut Ata, Alp Arslan...the heroes in the Gökdepe Castle.. all made
the Türkmen known to the whole world. You are their descendants. Only
patriotism and bravery will suit you. Be loyal to the country whose
resources you make use of, and to your mother who feeds you with her
milk. For the resources granted by the homeland to you and your
mother’s milk are sacred. Allah Almighty ordered that we should not
waste his treasures. It is an obligation upon you to protect these
sources of wealth because generations to come after you have a share in
them. You will always be fortunate if you share their grief and
happiness, and act in harmony with your fellow countrymen. Your fellows
are valuable to you. Look for guidance from your homeland. Follow the
path of justice. For those who follow the path of justice will never be
misled. This way is a source of light in the darkness. Be guided by the
moral conduct we inherited from our forefathers. Be obedient to them and
you will become the most caring person in the world.
My
dear son, my beloved daughter! Read! Learn! Produce! It is essential
that you be knowledgeable and skilful so that the homeland can survive
powerfully and independently, and so that our people remain prosperous
and heroic as ever.
