Lyrics and translation Bülent Ortaçgil - Adam Sende

Adam Sende

Adımı düşürmüşüm yere
Çok dipsiz kuyuya, psikologlar gülsün
Çok değişik insanlardı
Ama çok ses vardı
Ve hiç duymazlardı
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
Boğaz tokluğu tek ilkemiz
Parası olan yaşar, doktorlar gülsün
Sağ olsun sağ kalanlar
Hastayım demeyin, hemen anlarlar
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
Büyük bir köy oldu bu ülke
Hadi güle güle, politikacı gülsün
Kargadan başka kuş tanımam
Ve hiç önermem benden küçüklere
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
On yedisinde çocuk var içeride
Acaba ne diye? Yargıçlar gülsün
Çeyrek var yüzyılı devirmeye
Ama bizde yok, sırası değil
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
Okuduk, okuduk, ok olduk
Ve çok geldik, öğretmenim gülsün
Gemiler yürümüyor kaptan
Bütün köşeler bizi bekler
Neden Mazhar, Mazhar?
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
Yeşilden ben hiç hoşlanmam
Ben betonu severim, mimarlar gülsün
Her yıl ur gibi büyürüm
Ve tek yol aspirin, sonra düşünürüm
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
Onlar uçuyor, biz yaya
Alışamadık hâlâ, yenile yenile
Siz Hanya′ya, ben Konya'ya
Bana bir gül verin, birlikte gülelim
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok
Adam sen de
Adam nerde?
Adam yok

Adam Sende

I dropped my name down the well,
A bottomless well, let the psychologists laugh.
They were unforgettable people,
But there were too many voices,
And everyone's ears were blocked.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
All we know is to fill our bellies,
May those lucky in money live carefree, let the doctors laugh.
Cheers to those still living,
Don't tell anyone you're sick, they'll know it right away.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
This country has become nothing but a huge village,
Well, good riddance, let the politicians have their fun.
Besides the crow, no other bird I recognize,
And I would never recommend to anyone smaller than me.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
There is a seventeen year-old boy in prison,
I wonder why? Let the judges laugh.
We are a quarter century away from the new millennium,
But it has no place for us, it's not our turn.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
We studied, we studied, we became arrows,
And we came a great distance, let my teacher laugh.
Captain, our ships won't sail,
Every corner is waiting for us.
Why Mazhar, Mazhar?
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
I never liked green,
I love concrete, let the architects laugh.
I swell like a tumor every year,
And I think afterwards when I take aspirin.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
They are flying, we are walking,
We cannot catch up, again and again,
You to Baghdad, I to Konya.
Give me a rose, let's laugh together.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
Darling, what's going on?
Darling, where are you?
Darling, you're nowhere to be seen.
