Lyrics and translation Selda Bağcan - Yalan Dünya

Yalan Dünya

Bu dünya yalan dünya yalan, yalan, yalan dünya
Bu dünya yalan dünya yalan, yalan, yalan dünya

Mecnun Leyla′ya vurulmuş, Kerem Aslı'ya kul olmuş
Ferhat Şirin′le yoğrulmuş
Arzu'yu Kamber'e vereydin ya
Yalan, yalan, yalan dünya

Kimisini ağlatırsın, kimisini güldürürsün
Genç yaşlarda öldürürsün
Ölüme çare bulaydın ya
Yalan, yalan, yalan dünya

Dağların var yüce yüce
Yaylaların koca koca
Yalan dünya uçtan uca
Sulh içinde olaydın ya yalan, yalan, yalan dünya

Kimisini ağlatırsın, kimisini güldürürsün
Genç yaşlarda öldürürsün
Ölüme çare bulaydın ya
Yalan, yalan, yalan dünya

Biraz umut vermedin ki, zalimi yere sermedin ki
Haktan yana olmadın ki
Yüzünü garibe döneydin ya
Yalan, yalan, yalan dünya

Bu dünya yalan dünya yalan, yalan, yalan dünya
Bu dünya yalan dünya yalan, yalan, yalan dünya

This World of Lies

This world is a lie, a lie, a lie, a lying world
This world is a lie, a lie, a lie, a lying world

Majnun has fallen for Leyla, Kerem is a slave to Asli
Ferhat was united with Shirin
Arzu should have been given to Kamber
Lies, lies, this lying world

You make some cry, you make some laugh
You kill at a young age
If only you could find a cure for death
Lies, lies, this lying world

Your mountains are so high
Your plateaus are so vast
Lies, this lying world, from one end to the other
If only you could have peace from one end to the other

You make some cry, you make some laugh
You kill at a young age
If only you could find a cure for death
Lies, lies, this lying world

You don't give us any hope, you don't strike down the oppressors
You don't stand with the righteous
If only you could turn your face to the poor
Lies, lies, this lying world

This world is a lie, a lie, a lie, a lying world
This world is a lie, a lie, a lie, a lying world
