Lyrics and translation Cem Karaca - Almancılar

Almancılar

Davulla zurnayla yola çıkmış
Bandoyla karşılanmıştık
Davulla zurnayla yola çıkmış
Bandoyla karşılanmıştık
İş gücümüzdü sattığımız
Ter olup çarklara aktığımız
Servete servet kattığımız
Gurbet el şimdi bize dön geri diyor
Aman amman aman amman Almancılar
Aman amman aman amman Almancılar
Davulla zurnayla yola çıkmış
Bandoyla karşılanmıştık
Davulla zurnayla yola çıkmış
Bandoyla karşılanmıştık
Bebeler doğurduk gurbet ellere
Büyüdüler verdik taş mekteplere
Dilleri dönmez ki bizim dillere
Merhabayı bilmez guten tag diyor
Aman amman aman amman Almancılar
Aman amman aman amman Almancılar
Davulla zurnayla yola çıkmış
Bandoyla karşılanmıştık
Davulla zurnayla yola çıkmış
Bandoyla karşılanmıştık
Yılda bir kere izindir deyip
Bulgarın Yugoslavın yolunu tepip
Edirne Ardahan gözümde tüten
Canım memleket bize Almancı diyor
Aman amman aman amman Almancılar
Aman amman aman amman Almancılar
Davulla zurnayla yola çıkmış
Bandoyla karşılanmıştık
Davulla zurnayla yola çıkmış
Bandoyla karşılanmıştık
Davulla zurnayla yola çıkmış
Bandoyla karşılanmıştık
Davulla zurnayla yola çıkmış

Germans

We set off with drums and zurna
We were met with a band
We set off with drums and zurna
We were met with a band
It was our labor that we sold
We poured ourselves sweat into the gears
We added wealth to wealth
Now the foreign land tells us to come back
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness, Germans
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness, Germans
We set off with drums and zurna
We were met with a band
We set off with drums and zurna
We were met with a band
We gave birth to babies in foreign lands
We raised them and sent them to stone schools
Their tongues can't speak our language
They don't know hello, they say guten tag
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness, Germans
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness, Germans
We set off with drums and zurna
We were met with a band
We set off with drums and zurna
We were met with a band
Once a year, we take leave
And nervously pace the roads of Bulgaria and Yugoslavia
Edirne and Ardahan smoke in my eyes
My beloved country calls us Germans
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness, Germans
Oh my goodness, oh my goodness, oh my goodness, Germans
We set off with drums and zurna
We were met with a band
We set off with drums and zurna
We were met with a band
We set off with drums and zurna
We were met with a band
We set off with drums and zurna
