I can understand each word, maybe together they form a phrase?

Also, please, explain the meaning of "Bırakalım, istediklerini yapsınlar". Thank you.

It is not a phrase actually, it is "let's think"

"Bırakalım, istediklerini yapsınlar"
Bırakalım means "let them"
istediklerini means "things they want"
yapsınlar means "do"

Overall
Let them do what ever they want to do.

Hi,
Yes, it can be said.

Literally: Let us think // Let's think a while (in Turkish)
Hmmm... Düşünelim bakalım, kararımı sana sonra söylerim.

Henüz bir karar vermedik. Hele bir düşünelim bakalım.

Hele bir düşünelim bakalım. Biz sana haber veririz.

"Bırakalım, istediklerini yapsınlar".
Let them do what they want or
Let them do what ever they want to do.
