Jūmeken Sаbyrūly Näjımedenov (Kazakh: Жұмекен Сабырұлы Нәжімеденов; 28 November 1935 – 22 November 1983) was a Kazakh poet.[1] He was born in Kurmangazy District in Atyrau Province, Kazakhstan.
In 1956, he wrote the lyrics of the Kazakh patriotic song "Menıñ Qazaqstanym" along with Şämşı Qaldaiaqov, who composed the music.[2]
The song "Menıñ Qazaqstanym" was modified in 2006 by First Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev, and has since became the current national anthem of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
