Lyrics and translation Hayki - Pencere

Pencere

Bazen sevindirip bazen üzer
Bazen de kaşlarını çatmış bir kadın kadar güzel
Daralan sokaklarda yer etmiş bi' hüzün
Fakat bu caddeler ağlayan bir kadın kadar güzel
Şimdi şarkılar da başlamıştır Kadıköy'de kesin
Akşam işte çıkıp bi'kaç kadeh, martılarla gezip
Sahilde hatıra, masmavi bir resim
Düşüp sızarsam uyandırır dalgaların sesi
İstanbul; mutluluğun tatlı mücadelesi
Ve bir kadın kavgalarım, derdim ve çaresi
Ve maalesef bu şehir bütün bitişlerin başı
Olsun, imkânsız değil, yok ki başarmanın yaşı
Beni hayallere taşıyan bu kenti bırakmam
Nasılsa aynı denizde boğuluruz yaşasak da ayrı hayatlar
İmkânsız değil, iste yeter
Çünkü İstanbul ağlayan bir kadın kadar güzel
Neden kimse camdan bakmaz?
Neden artık ışık yakmaz?
Kuşlar bile "ötmem" derse
Kim yol keser çiçeklerle?
Neden kimse camdan bakmaz?
Neden artık ışık yakmaz?
Kuşlar bile "ötmem" derse
Kim yol keser çiçeklerle?
Serin bi' sabah günü
Sıcak bi' yağmur ardı toprak kokan şehir
Bu da vazgeçilir değil
İskeleden seyredersem bi' gün kalkan vapurları
Düşün neden böyle dargın bize Haydarpaşa Garı
Fenerbahçe, Kalamış, Üsküdar ve Moda
Nerem varsa kanamış, hissederdi o da
Her gün tüten bacam tıkalıydı, sobalıydı odam
Kadın, içinde büyüdüğün evin adıydı adın
Şimdi balıklar da yüzüp gitti hatıralar gibi
Belki bundan yiyor martılar da simit (hıh)
Deniz kenarında deniz, tren yollarında tren yok
Yıkılmış istasyon, mavi gözlü dedem yok
Korkutan bir telaş, şimdi İstanbul da gülmüyo'
İstanbul da gülmüyo, hem kalabalık hem kimse yok
İmkânsız değil, iste yeter
Çünkü İstanbul ağlayan bir kadın kadar güzel
Neden kimse camdan bakmaz?
Neden artık ışık yakmaz?
Kuşlar bile "ötmem" derse
Kim yol keser çiçeklerle?
Neden kimse camdan bakmaz?
Neden artık ışık yakmaz?
Kuşlar bile "ötmem" derse
Kim yol keser çiçeklerle?
Neden kimse camdan bakmaz?
Neden artık ışık yakmaz?
Kuşlar bile "ötmem" derse
Kim yol keser çiçeklerle?
Neden kimse camdan bakmaz?
Neden artık ışık yakmaz?
Kuşlar bile "ötmem" derse
Kim yol keser çiçeklerle?

Window

Sometimes makes you happy, sometimes hurts
And sometimes as beautiful as a frowning woman
A sorrow settled in the narrow streets
But these streets are as beautiful as a crying woman
I'm sure the songs have started in Kadıköy by now
After work, let's have a few drinks, wander around with the seagulls
A memory on the shore, a blue picture
If I pass out, the sound of the waves will wake me up
Istanbul; the sweet struggle of happiness
And a woman, my fights, my problems and my solution
And unfortunately this city is the beginning of all endings
But no problem, it's not impossible, there is no age to success
I won't leave this city that carries me to my dreams
We'll drown in the same sea anyway, even if we live separate lives
It's not impossible, all you need is to want it
Because Istanbul is as beautiful as a crying woman
Why doesn't anyone look out the window?
Why doesn't anyone turn on the lights anymore?
If even the birds say "I won't sing"
Who will block the way with flowers?
Why doesn't anyone look out the window?
Why doesn't anyone turn on the lights anymore?
If even the birds say "I won't sing"
Who will block the way with flowers?
On a cool morning
A warm rain, then an earthy-smelling city
This is not something to give up
If I watch the departing ferries from the pier one day
Think about why Haydarpaşa Station is so offended with us
Fenerbahçe, Kalamış, Üsküdar and Moda
Every part of me has bled, she could feel it too
My chimney was always smoking every day, my room had a stove
Woman, the name of the house you grew up in was your name
Now the fish are swimming away, just like memories
Maybe that's why seagulls also eat simit (haha)
There's sea by the sea, but no trains on the train tracks
The station is demolished, my blue eyed grandfather is gone
A frightening rush, now Istanbul is not even smiling
Istanbul is not smiling, it's both crowded and empty
It's not impossible, all you need is to want it
Because Istanbul is as beautiful as a crying woman
Why doesn't anyone look out the window?
Why doesn't anyone turn on the lights anymore?
If even the birds say "I won't sing"
Who will block the way with flowers?
Why doesn't anyone look out the window?
Why doesn't anyone turn on the lights anymore?
If even the birds say "I won't sing"
Who will block the way with flowers?
Why doesn't anyone look out the window?
Why doesn't anyone turn on the lights anymore?
If even the birds say "I won't sing"
Who will block the way with flowers?
Why doesn't anyone look out the window?
Why doesn't anyone turn on the lights anymore?
If even the birds say "I won't sing"
Who will block the way with flowers?
