Therefore, may the prayers of Hacı Bektaş-ı Veli, Yunus Emre and Mevlana protect us. Let's be people who have the good feelings they left us. If we have learned a little about Hacı Bektaş-ı Veli, or if we have understood Mevlana or Yunus Emre and others, the saints of these lands a little, we will become the owner of a paradise like homeland where the most beautiful people in the world live together. In this respect, may Allah Almighty protect us from confusions, quarrels, divisions, polarizations. May the blessings of Ashura, the feelings that hold us together, that beautiful sincerity, that beauty that springs up in this land, be at our table. May it be with the lives of all of our children and young people. I will try to represent you well, I will not be ashamed of you. God bless you all."
