Yomut Lullaby Lyrics. An original lullaby inspired by the Yomut tribe of Turkmenistan, historically settled near the Caspian Sea and known for horse breeding and carpet weaving. Each Turkmen tribe traditionally wove its own recognizable gul, a distinctive medallion-like motif repeated across its carpets, and a trained eye can often identify a carpet’s tribal origin, Yomut included, just from the specific pattern and coloring used. Here you will find the lyrics, meaning, and chords.

What “Yomut Lullaby” Means
The Yomut tribe of Turkmenistan, historically settled between the eastern shores of the Caspian Sea and the Gorgan area, is known for horse breeding and for carpets with geometric diamond patterns in earthy tones, distinct from the bolder Teke style. This original lullaby draws on those coastal and horse-culture images of Yomut life.
