Paroles et traduction Niran Ünsal - Ah İstanbul

Ah İstanbul

A İstanbul beyim aman
Sen bir han mısın?
Varan yiğitleri de beyler aman
Yudan sen misin?
Gelinleri yârsız koyan
Bidanem sen misin?
Gidip de gelmeyen de beyler aman
Yari ben neyleyim
Vakitsiz açılan da beyler aman
Gülü ben neyleyim
Ah İstanbul beyim aman
Issız kalasın
Taşına toprağına beyler aman
Güller dolasın
O da bencileyin aman
Yârsız kalasın
Gidip de gelmeyen de beyler aman
Yari ben neyleyim
Vakitsiz açılan da beyler aman
Gülü ben neyleyim

Oh Istanbul

Oh Istanbul, my love
Are you a palace?
The valiant men, my love
Did you devour them?
You left brides without their lovers
Is that you, my beloved?
Those who left and never returned, my love
What should I do with my lover?
Those who bloom out of season, my love
What should I do with the rose?
Oh Istanbul, my love
May you remain desolate
Your stones and soil, my love
May roses bloom
Like me, my love
May you remain without a lover
Those who left and never returned, my love
What should I do with my lover?
Those who bloom out of season, my love
What should I do with the rose?
