Paroles et traduction Aşık Veysel - Sen Bir Ceylan Olsan Ben Bir Avcı

Sen Bir Ceylan Olsan Ben Bir Avcı

Sen bi' ceylan olsan, ey, ben de bir avcu
Avlasam çöllerde, ey, saz ile seni
Bulunmaz dermanın, ey, yoktur ilacı
Vursam, yaralasam söz ile seni

Diley, diley, diley
Söz ile seni

Kurulma sevdigim, "Güzelim" deyin
Bağlanma karayı, alları geyin
Ben bir çoban olsam, ey, sen de bir koyun
Seslesem elime duz ile seni

Diley, diley, diley
Duz ile seni

Koyun olsan otlaydırdım yaylada
Tellerini yoldurmazdım hoyrada
Balık olsan, takla dönsen deryada
Düşürsem torunayı hız ile seni

Diley, diley, diley
Hız ile seni

Veysel der, "İsmin, ey, koymam dilimden"
Ayrı düştüm vetonyanımdan, elimden
Kuş olsan da kurtulmazdın elimden
Eger görsem idi göz ile seni

Diley, diley, diley
Göz ile seni

Can You Be a Deer, I Can Be a Hunter

If you were a deer, hey, I would be a hunter
I would chase you down in the wilderness, hey, with my saz
There is no cure, hey, and there is no remedy
I would shoot, I would wound you with words

Ask, ask, ask
With words

Don't get cocky my love, when they call you "Beauty"
Don't crave the black, wear the red
If I were a shepherd, hey, you would be a sheep
I would call you with salt in my hand

Ask, ask, ask
With salt

If you were a sheep, I would graze you in the meadows
I would not let anyone harm you
If you were a fish, jumping in the ocean
I would quickly drop my net and catch you

Ask, ask, ask
Quickly

Veysel says, "I can't get your name off my tongue"
My heart is still with you
Even if you were a bird, you wouldn't escape me
If only I could see you again

Ask, ask, ask
With my eyes
