Turkmen pop singer Sohbet Jumayev released a new song, "Halkym diýip ýaşaýar" (Editor's note: "He lives thinking about the people"), dedicated to the successes of modern Turkmenistan. The music video premiered on July 18, 2026, on the artist's official YouTube channel.
This is a musical declaration of love for the homeland - pride in the past and faith in the country's future, merged into one common chorus of voices. The screen flashes scenes that encompass the entire panorama of Turkmen life: chorek baking in a tamdyr and carpet weaving, men dancing against a backdrop of mountains, a shepherd with his flock at sunset, construction sites, school classrooms, wrestlers training, and the snow-white marble architecture of Ashgabat. The culmination is when people of different generations and professions, from aksakals to children, unite in a communal singing against the backdrop of the country's architectural monuments.
Sohbet Jumayev is a Turkmen pop artist. He was born in 1992 in the village of Garabekevul. He is known for his patriotic and lyrical compositions, and his new song is a vibrant continuation of this theme.
The music video for "Halkym diýip ýaşaýar" is now available for viewing on the artist's official YouTube channel.
