Reupload because someone was complaining about the artwork I made.
İzmir Marşı (Izmir March) is a song written during the Turkish War of Independence to commemorate basically the last battle of the war, that being the taking of Smyrna in Southwestern Turkey. The Greeks took over what it deemed to be "rightful Greek land" in Anatolia and Turkish Thrace, however, was denied control over the city of Istanbul by the British, who only viewed the Greeks as a push over that cannot be taken seriously. The Greeks, who made an attempt to push towards Ankara, were driven to coast in which they ended up losing on the 9th of September 1922. Leader Mustafa Kemal was left to pick up the pieces of the burnt Ottoman state and out of its ashes established the Republic of Turkey on October 29th, 1923.
İzmir'in dağlarında çiçekler açar
İzmir'in dağlarında çiçekler açar
Altın güneş orda sırmalar saçar
Altın güneş orda sırmalar saçar
Bozulmuş düşmanlar yel gibi kaçar
Bozulmuş düşmanlar yel gibi kaçar
Yaşa Mustafa Kemal Paşa! Yaşa!
Adın yazılacak mücevher taşa
Yaşa Mustafa Kemal Paşa! Yaşa!
Adın yazılacak mücevher taşa
İzmir'in dağlarında oturdum kaldım
İzmir'in dağlarında oturdum kaldım
Şehit olanları deftere yazdım
Şehit olanları deftere yazdım
Öksüz yavruları bağrıma bastım
Öksüz yavruları bağrıma bastım
