Story
Yunus Emre's centuries-old hymn 'Allah Emrin Tutalım' is reborn in eight tongues of history: Turkish, English, Arabic, Persian, Greek, Latin, Aramaic and Ancient Egyptian. The name Yunus evokes both the poet and the whale that swallows and rebirths — and the hymn lives that same mystical journey as it passes from language to language. One invocation becomes a single voice beyond language, echoing across civilizations. The ancient-tongue versions are an artistic tribute to the hymn's spirit, not historical translations.
