Lyrics and translation Selçuk Balcı - Kaçır Beni

Kaçır Beni

Sevduğumun babasi kizi bana vermeyi
Böyle inatçi adam, yaşi da var ölmeyi
Dedum ki sevduğuma ne olacak halumuz
Dedi al kaçur beni bu olsun kararumuz
Dedum ki biliyisun benum durumum dardur
Bir kuçuk çayluğumlan bir tahta evum vardur
Bir kuçuk çayluğumlan bir tahta evum vardur
Dedi ki biliyirum benum içun fark etmez
Dedum felsefe etma sevdaluk para etmez
Güldi dedi yuzuma nerdedur adamluğun
Hane severdun beni bu midur sevdaluğun
Bu iş gururum oldi sağa sola vuramam
Ben artuk ha bu kizi kaçurmadan duramam
Ben artuk ha bu kizi kaçurmadan duramam
Sabağun soğuğunda kalktum iz vurdum kara
Barabenli belumde ben gideyirum yara
Ayağumdaki çorap çektum dizime kadar
Kizi kaçuramazsam sevdaluk işi yatar
Yaklaştum kapisina anasi gördi beni
Dedum hala rahat dur çeker vururum seni
Dedum hala rahat dur çeker vururum seni
Dedi oğlum bezmişim bu kizun hallarından
Babasi bi şey demez korkar amcalarindan
Benum deli yureğum sevdasini taşiyi
Babasi raziysa onlar ne karişiyi
Babasi raziysa onlar ne karişiyi
Hazirlandi sevduğum çikti kapiya geldi
Dedi babam uyuyi dedum inşallah eldi
Sarildi anasina gözleri dola dola
Gelup tutti elumden öyle koyulduk yola
Karlar bile eridi sevda ateşumuzden
Anasi bize bakup ağladi peşumuzden
Anasi bize bakup ağladi peşumuzden

Abduct Me

My lover's father would not let me have his daughter
An old man, stubborn, like his age was his slaughter
I asked my beloved, what would become of us
She said, come abduct me, and let that be our fuss
I told her, you know my situation is dire
I have only a small hut and tea to inspire
I have only a small hut and tea to inspire
She said, I know that, and I don't care
I said, don't philosophize, love is not based on air
She laughed in my face, where is your manhood
If you really loved me, you would prove it, wouldn't you
This matter has become my pride, I can't back down
I will surely abduct this girl, I cannot be bound
I will surely abduct this girl, I cannot be bound
At dawn's cold break, I set out and left my mark in the snow
With my drum slung on my back, I am coming for you, my dear
I pulled my socks up to my knees
If I can't abduct this girl, my love will cease
As I approached her gate, her mother saw me
I said, stay still, or I will shoot you
I said, stay still, or I will shoot you
She said, son, I am weary of my daughter's ways
Her father says nothing, he fears his brothers
My mad heart can only carry her love
If her father is willing, let them not interfere
If her father is willing, let them not interfere
My beloved was ready and came to the door
She said, my father is sleeping, I hope he is no more
She hugged her mother, her eyes full of tears
She took my hand, and we set off on our way
The snow melted at the fire of our love
Her mother watched us go, weeping all the way
Her mother watched us go, weeping all the way
