After the death of Saparmurat Nyýazow in 2006, the lyrics were modified in 2008 by removing his title of "Türkmenbaşy" in the refrain. The music was composed by Weli Muhadow, who also composed the music for the Soviet-era anthem.
The lyrics were originally written by the first president of Turkmenistan, Saparmurat Nyýazow (better known as Türkmenbaşy), who died on 21 December 2006. Less than two years after his death, references to him in the chorus were replaced with "the people",[3] and both the third and final verse and the chorus at the start of the piece were removed. The national anthem is played at the start of radio and television broadcasts at 6:55 a.m. local time and played again when radio and television stations sign off.
