Lyrics and translation Cem Karaca - Yahya Kahya

Yahya Kahya

Diskoteğin önünde kahya durmuşum
Diskoteğin önünde kahya durmuşum
Araba plakasından fallar tutmuşum
Araba plakasından fallar tutmuşum
İçeri giren sarı kız bana baksaydı
Baksaydı da bana bana, benim olsaydı
Olmaz olmaz bilirim, ben kahya Yahya
O kimbilir kimin nesi, ben kahya Yahya
Şu İstanbul şehrinden neler ummuşum
Şu İstanbul şehrinden neler ummuşum
Ummuşum da sadece yutkunmuşum
Ummuşum da sadece yutkunmuşum
İçeri giren sarı kız bana baksaydı
Baksaydı da bana bana, benim olsaydı
Olmaz olmaz bilirim, ben kahya Yahya
O kimbilir kimin nesi, ben kahya Yahya
Dur be oğlum kahya Yahya, gel haddini bil
Dur be oğlum kahya Yahya, gel haddini bil
Sen kahyasın, kahya gibi kahyalığını bil
Sen kahyasın, kahya gibi kahyalığını bil
İceri giren sarı kız bana bakmaz ki
Baksa bile bana bana benim olmaz ki
Olmaz olmaz bilirim, ben kahya Yahya
O kimbilir kimin nesi, ben kahya Yahya

Yahya the Butler

I stand as a butler outside the disco
I stand as a butler outside the disco
I read the fortunes from the license plates of the cars
I read the fortunes from the license plates of the cars
If only the blonde girl who goes in would look at me
Look at me, at me, be mine
It can't be, it can't be, I know, I'm Butler Yahya
Who knows who she belongs to, I'm Butler Yahya
What hopes I had for this city of Istanbul
What hopes I had for this city of Istanbul
I had hoped and only swallowed
I had hoped and only swallowed
If only the blonde girl who goes in would look at me
Look at me, at me, be mine
It can't be, it can't be, I know, I'm Butler Yahya
Who knows who she belongs to, I'm Butler Yahya
Stop, my boy Butler Yahya, come to your senses
Stop, my boy Butler Yahya, come to your senses
You're a butler, know your place as a butler
You're a butler, know your place as a butler
The blonde girl who goes in won't look at me
Even if she looks at me, she won't be mine
It can't be, it can't be, I know, I'm Butler Yahya
Who knows who she belongs to, I'm Butler Yahya
