Paroles et traduction Neşet Ertaş - Ceylan

Ceylan

Terkedeli ceylan şu bizim dağı
Ne laleler açtı ne sümbül bitti
Bozuk viran oldu gönlümün bağı
Ne güller açıldı ne bülbül öttü

Yaralı ceylanım kimler incitti kimler incitti
Yaralı yaralı yaralı ceylanım
Sensin bu dağların meralı ceylan

Bilirim bir bahtı karalı ceylan
Avcılar atıpta vuralı ceylan
Avcılar elinde yaralı ceylan
Al guzulu ceylan gel bizim bağa
Sensin güneş gözlüm gül bizim bağa, gül bizim bağa, gül bizim bağa

Yaralı yaralı yaralı ceylan
Sensin bu dağların meralı ceylan

Zalım avcılara ben ne söyleyim
Herkesi kendime haval eyleyim
Sen olmazsan bu dağları neyleyim
Çekinme ceylanım gel bu garipten
Bir emanetin var al bu garipten, al bu garipten

Yaralı yaralı yaralı ceylan
Sensin bu gönlün meralı ceylan
Yaralı yaralı yaralı ceylan
Sensin bu dağların meralı ceylan

Gazelle

Our mountain is left lonely, my gazelle
Neither tulips have bloomed nor hyacinths grown
The garden of my heart has become a broken ruin
Neither roses have bloomed nor nightingales sung

My wounded gazelle, who has hurt you, who has hurt you
Wounded, wounded, wounded, my gazelle
You are the gazelle of these mountains

I know you are a gazelle with a dark destiny
Hunters will shoot and wound you, my gazelle
You are a wounded gazelle in the hands of hunters
Come, my dear gazelle, with your golden horns, come to our garden
You are the one with sun-like eyes, my rose of our garden, our garden, our garden

Wounded, wounded, wounded, my gazelle
You are the gazelle of these mountains

What can I say to those cruel hunters?
I can make everyone my enemy
What would I do with these mountains without you?
Don't shy away, my gazelle, come to this lonely man
You have a trust, take it from this lonely man, take it from this lonely man

Wounded, wounded, wounded, my gazelle
You are the gazelle of this heart
Wounded, wounded, wounded, my gazelle
You are the gazelle of these mountains
