Paroles et traduction Ceren Gültekin - Selvi Boylum

Selvi Boylum

Yücesine Çıkıp Baktığım Dağlar
Selvi Boylum Burdan Göç Eyledi Mi
Sel Olup Üstünden Aktığım Dağlar
Selvi Boylum Burdan Göç Eyledi Mi
Canımın Yarısı Yanımda Kaldı
Eridi Etlerim Derisi Kaldı
Felek Mi Yolunu İkiye Böldü
Selvi Boylum Burdan Göç Eyledi Mi
Ferhat Mı Olayım Mecnun Mu Şimdi
Değişti Asırlar O Başka Devir
Gündoğdu Pervane Miseli Döndü
Selvi Boylum Burdan Göç Eyledi Mi

My Cypress Girl

From the heights of the mountains I survey
Has my cypress girl migrated from here
In the form of a torrent I cascade down the mountains
Has my cypress girl migrated from here
Half of my heart was left behind
My flesh melted away, only my skin remains
Did fate cut our paths in two
Has my cypress girl migrated from here
Shall I become Ferhat or Mecnun
Centuries have changed, and the world is different now
As the sun rises, the moth circles
Has my cypress girl migrated from here
