Paroles et traduction Funda Arar - Berdel Gelin

Berdel Gelin

Ben ağlarım dağlar ağlar
Ardım sıra murad ağlar
Kolum kanadım kırılmış
Ağam ciğerimi dağlar

Berdel gelinine anam
Kına karmayın kurumaz
Kim sevdiğine varmazsa
Bilin ki muradın almaz

Aman ağam aman anam
Derdim çok dilerim aman
Nazlı kızım derdi babam
El kapılarına atman

Dağ ardına yuva kuran
Hasretlik zor ben de yanam
Yıkılası töre dersin
Getir yari son kez saram

Berdel gelinine anam
Kına karmayın kurumaz
Kim sevdiğine varmazsa
Bilin ki muradın almaz

Aman ağam aman anam
Derdim çok dilerim aman
Nazlı kızım derdi babam
El kapılarına atman

Aman ağam aman anam
Derdim çok dilerim aman
Nazlı kızım derdi babam

The Bride in Exchange

I weep, the mountains weep
My beloved weeps behind me
My arms and wings are broken
My brother tears at my heart

To the bride in exchange, my mother
Don't mix the henna, it won't dry
Who marries without love
Know that her wish will never come true

Oh, my brother, oh my mother
My sorrow is abundant, I desire your mercy
My precious daughter, says her father
He throws her at foreigners' doors

She who nests behind the mountains
Yearning is hard, I burn too
The accursed tradition, you say
Bring my lover, I'll embrace him one last time

To the bride in exchange, my mother
Don't mix the henna, it won't dry
Who marries without love
Know that her wish will never come true

Oh, my brother, oh my mother
My sorrow is abundant, I desire your mercy
My precious daughter, says her father
He throws her at foreigners' doors

Oh, my brother, oh my mother
My sorrow is abundant, I desire your mercy
My precious daughter, says her father
