Paroles et traduction Canan Çal - Sevin Yar

Sevin Yar

Ne sensiz ne senle,
Ne yerde ne gökte
Sordum bir dervişe:
"Sevdan varmidir"
Ne yazda ne kişta
Ne canda, cananda
Sordum ben kendime
Sevdam varmidir
Sus pus oldum
Arindim gayri,
Döndüm kendi gurbetime,
Duruldum gayri
Bir pazar kurdum
Tezgahta bir aşk
Satam dedim satamadim
Yoruldum gayri
Gonca idim. soldum gayri
Bülbül idim sustum gayri
Yaşar idim öldüm gayri.

Love Me

Neither with you nor without you,
Neither on earth nor in the sky
I asked a dervish:
"Are you in love"
Neither in summer nor in winter
Neither in body, nor in spirit
I asked myself
Am I in love?
I fell silent
I am pure now,
I returned to my own exile,
I am calm now
I set up a market,
There was love on the stall
I tried to sell it but I couldn't
I am tired now
I was a rosebud, I have withered now
I was a nightingale, I am silent now
I was alive, I am dead now.
