Paroles et traduction Belkıs Akkale - Al Yanaklim

Al Yanaklim

Ateş idim, küle döndüm
Sararmış bir güle döndüm
Ateş idim, küle döndüm
Sararmış bir güle döndüm

Sevdiğim gitti gideli
Dut yemiş bülbüle döndüm
Sevdiğim gitti gideli
Dut yemiş bülbüle döndüm

Al yanaklım, bal dudaklım
Sende galdı, vay vay, benim aklım
Al yanaklım, bal dudaklım
Sende galdı, vay vay, benim aklım

Ateşimsin, közümsün, yâr
Benim iki gözümsün, yâr
Ateşimsin, közümsün, yâr
Benim iki gözümsün, yâr

Ölüm bile ayıramaz
Şu alnımda yazımsın, yâr
Ölüm bile ayıramaz
Şu alnımda, vay vay, yazımsın, yâr

Al yanaklım, bal dudaklım
Sende galdı, vay vay, benim aklım
Al yanaklım, bal dudaklım
Sende galdı, vay vay, benim aklım

Kanasın bu yaram gayrı
Ben kimlere vara'm gayrı?
Kanasın bu yaram gayrı
Ben kimlere vara'm gayrı?

Alam gelmez, nere' getmiş?
Ah, ben nasıl, nasıl dura'm gayrı?
Alam gelmez, nere' getmiş?
Ah, ben nasıl, nasıl dura'm gayrı?

Al yanaklım, bal dudaklım
Sende galdı, vay vay, benim aklım
Al yanaklım, bal dudaklım
Sende galdı, vay vay, benim aklım

Burned into Embers

Once like a fire, now reduced to ash
I have become like a yellowed rose
Once like a fire, now reduced to ash
I have become like a yellowed rose

Since my love has departed
I have become like a nightingale bereft of mulberries
Since my love has departed
I have become like a nightingale bereft of mulberries

My love with rosy cheeks and honeyed lips
My heart and mind remain with you
My love with rosy cheeks and honeyed lips
My heart and mind remain with you

You are my fire, my embers
You are the light in both my eyes
You are my fire, my embers
You are the light in both my eyes

Not even Death can part us
For you are the destiny written upon my forehead
Not even Death can part us
For you are the destiny, my cherished one, upon my forehead

My love with rosy cheeks and honeyed lips
My heart and mind remain with you
My love with rosy cheeks and honeyed lips
My heart and mind remain with you

Let this wound heal, I can bear it no longer
To whom else can I turn?
Let this wound heal, I can bear it no longer
To whom else can I turn?

My love has disappeared, where have you gone?
Oh, how, how can I go on without you?
My love has disappeared, where have you gone?
Oh, how, how can I go on without you?

My love with rosy cheeks and honeyed lips
My heart and mind remain with you
My love with rosy cheeks and honeyed lips
My heart and mind remain with you
