Lyrics and translation Gaye Su Akyol - Kendimden kaçmaktan

Kendimden kaçmaktan

Kendimden kaçmaktan yorgun düştüm
Uçurumlardan uçtum
Ölmedim ama süründüm
Kırlarda kendime mezar buldum
Senden uzak bir yuva kurdum
Günden güne kurudum
Taş olsa yanar, deniz olsa kururdu
Ne yandın ne de kurudun
Uzaklardan tuzak kurdun
Sonsuz okyanusta sonlu aklım
Yıkandım aşkınla hep
Hep çıplak başa döndüm
Of, of, of
Of, of, of
Kendimden kaçmaktan yorgun düştüm
Uçurumlardan uçtum
Ölmedim ama süründüm
Kırlarda kendime mezar buldum
Senden uzakta bir yuva kurdum
Günden güne kurudum
Of, of, of
Of, of, of
Of, of, of

From Fleeing Myself

I'm exhausted from fleeing myself
I've fallen from precipices
I didn't die, but I crawled
I found a tomb for myself in the wilds
I established a home far from you
I dried up day by day
Stone would burn and sea would dry up
Yet you've neither burned nor dried up
You've set a trap from afar
My finite mind in the infinite ocean
I bathed in your love all the time
Always I returned to the beginning, naked
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
I'm exhausted from fleeing myself
I've fallen from precipices
I didn't die, but I crawled
I found a tomb for myself in the wilds
I established a home far from you
I dried up day by day
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
