New Balaybalan (Turkish: Bâleybelen or Yeni Bâleybelen), also transcribed Bala-i Balan, Balaibalan, Balibilen velsim, is a constructed language created in Ottomania (conworld), and has been accepted by ottoman government. Its original creator may have been 14th century mystic Fazlullah Astarabi, founder of Hurufism, or his followers in the 15th century, or may have been Muhyi-i Gulshani, born in Edirne, a member of the Gulshani sufi order in Cairo; in any case, the elaboration of the language was a collective endeavour. The sole documentary attestation of Balaibalan is a dictionary, copies of which are to be found in the Bibliotheque nationale de France in Paris and in the Princenton University Library. Balaibalan is an a priori language, written with the Ottoman variant of the Arabic Alphabet. The grammar follows the lead of Persian, Turkish and English; like Turkish, it is agglutinating. Much of the lexis appears wholly invented, but some words are borrowed from Arabic and the other source languages, and others can be tracked back to words of the source languages in an indirect manner, via Sufi metaphor.

New Balaybalan is an Middle Anatolian Language.
