Paroles et traduction Nükhet Duru - Ceylan

Ceylan

Ah yüreğim de dört nala atlar
Atların sağrısında kanatlar
Sağ yanım boydan boya Mezopotamya
Sol yanımda Rumeli ağıtları patlar
Sağ yanım boydan boya Mezopotamya
Sol yanımda Rumeli ağıtları patlar
Gözlerime astılar seni Ceylanım kör oldum ben
Ne havan topu ne mermi senle vuruldum ben
Gözlerime astılar seni Ceylanım kör oldum ben
Ne havan topu ne mermi senle vuruldum ben
Ah gözümün yaşı sel Selanik
Diyarbekire bi türkü selalık
Gezme Ceylan bu dağlarda gezme
Gece gerdanlık gündüz mezarlık
Gezme Ceylan bu dağlarda gezme
Gece gerdanlık gündüz mezarlık
Gözlerime astılar seni Ceylanım kör oldum ben
Ne havan topu ne mermi senle vuruldum ben
Gözlerime astılar seni Ceylanım kör oldum ben
Ne havan topu ne mermi senle vuruldum ben

Ceylan

Oh, my heart beats furiously like a racehorse
With wings on the flanks of the horses
My right side is all Mesopotamia
While on my left, Thrace's laments erupt
My right side is all Mesopotamia
While on my left, Thrace's laments erupt
They have hung you before my eyes, my Ceylan, and I have gone blind
Not by a mortar or a bullet have I been struck, but by you
They have hung you before my eyes, my Ceylan, and I have gone blind
Not by a mortar or a bullet have I been struck, but by you
Oh, the tears from my eyes are a flood in Salonika
A tragic song from Diyarbakır
Don't wander in these mountains, Ceylan
At night, they're a necklace, but in the day, a graveyard
Don't wander in these mountains, Ceylan
At night, they're a necklace, but in the day, a graveyard
They have hung you before my eyes, my Ceylan, and I have gone blind
Not by a mortar or a bullet have I been struck, but by you
They have hung you before my eyes, my Ceylan, and I have gone blind
Not by a mortar or a bullet have I been struck, but by you
