Korkma! Sönmez bu şafaklarda yüzen al sancak;
Sönmeden yurdumun üstünde tüten en son ocak.
O benim milletimin yıldızıdır, parlayacak!
O benimdir, o benim milletimindir ancak!
Çatma, kurban olayım, çehreni ey nazlı hilâl;
Kahraman ırkıma bir gül... Ne bu şiddet, bu celâl?
Sana olmaz dökülen kanlarımız sonra helâl;
Hakkıdır Hakk’a tapan, milletimin istiklâl.
Fear not! The crimson flag blowing at these dawns shall never fade
Unless the very last hearth that burns upon this land extinguishes.
It is my nation's star, it will shine on!
It is mine, it can only belong to my nation!
Frown not! O coy crescent, for I am ready to sacrifice myself for you;
Smile upon this heroic nation -- why this anger, this rage? --
How else our blood shed for you can become consecrated, sanctified
This Nation deserves its independence, worshipping the Divine Right!

Fear not and be dismayed,
this crimson flag will never fade
it s the last hearth that's burning for my nation and
we know for sure that will never fail.
it s my nation's star that ever forth will shine.
it s my nation's star and it's mine
Frown not, fair crescent, for I
Am ready e'en to die for thee
smile now upon my heroic nation, leave this anger
lest the blood shed for the unblessed be,
Freedom's the right of this nation,
Yes, freedom for us who worship God and seek what s right.

I was not aware that England had a separate anthem other than "swing low sweet chariot" often sung at English rugby games.

English National Anthem
God Save the Queen
God save our gracious Queen,
Long live our noble Queen,
God save the Queen!
Send her victorious,
Happy and Glorious,
Long to reign over us;
God save the Queen!
O Lord our God arise,
Scatter her enemies
And make them fall;
Confound their politics,
Frustrate their knavish tricks,
On Thee our hopes we fix,
Oh, save us all!
Thy choicest gifts in store
On her be pleased to pour;
Long may she reign;
May she defend our laws,
And ever give us cause
To sing with heart and voice,
God save the Queen!
there you go!but yes joey i prefer swing low sweet chariot

Refrain
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Coming for to carry me home,
Swing low, sweet chariot,
Coming for to carry me home.
I looked over Jordan, and what did I see?
Coming for to carry me home,
A band of angels coming after me,
Coming for to carry me home.
Refrain
If you get there before I do,
Coming for to carry me home,
Tell all my friends I’m coming, too.
Coming for to carry me home.
Refrain
I’m sometimes up and sometimes down,
Coming for to carry me home,
But still my soul feels heavenly bound,
Coming for to carry me home.
Refrain
The brightest day that I can say,
Coming for to carry me home,
When Jesus washed my sins away,
Coming for to carry me home.
Refrain
EXCELLENT!

We use the same one up here in Scotland only we call it the National Anthem and I see you use the shortened version with no mention of the six paragraph with the line
"rebellious Scots to crush"
