Chagatay Turkic lyrics:
Yettı yuz yıl toqsan üçintä qoy yaznıŋ ara ay
Turannıŋ sultānı Timurbäg üç yuz miŋ çärig bilä
Bu yergä yetip bälgü bolzun tep bu obanı qopardı
Täŋri nısbat bergäy inşallah!
Täŋri ul kişikä rahmat qılğay bizni duā bıla yād qılğay!
Summer seven hundred and ninety-three, in the middle spring month of the year of the sheep,
Sultan of Turan Timur-Bey went up with three hundred thousand troops,
Reaching the area, he built this mound to have been a memorial.
God willing, the Lord would execute justice!
The Lord will have mercy to the people of the country! Yes, they will remember us with prayer!
Persian lyrics:
Vagar ātashe ghahr-ash afrookhti,
Be yek shoğle zān keshfari sookhti,
Be kooh ar (agar) ze kin sāye andākhti,
Cho yakh pishe khorshid bog dākhti!
Dam az kine oo, kas be ālam nazad,
Vagar zad, de gar dar jahān dam nazad,
If you did light the fire of his wrath,
With that one ember, you burned an entire country,
If you dared cast your shadow upon that high mountain,
Like the sun, he would melt down your mountain of ice,
If any dared tempt his anger by speaking ill of him,
Then that one would cease to exist in this world
