  • " Those heroes that shed their blood

    • And lost their lives...

    • You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country.

    • Therefore rest in peace.

    • There is no difference between the Johnnies

    • and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side

    • Here in this country of ours...

  • You, the mothers,

    • Who sent their sons from far away countries

    • Wipe away your tears,

    • Your sons are now lying in our bosom

    • And are in peace.

    • After having lost their lives on this land

    • they have become our sons as well"

    • Ataturk, 1934
