Paroles et traduction Seda Sayan - Kara Gözlüm

Kara Gözlüm

Ben bin kere dedim sen bir kez niye
Sevdim diyemedin be kara gözlüm
Madem riyakarım muradı niye
Akan gözyaşlarım ne kara gözlüm
Gidende gelende duranda bile
İçimde çırpınıp duranda bile
Sen varsın mukaddes Kur'an da bile
Elif be te se'm kara gözlüm
Henüz rastlamadım halden bilene
Perişan halime gülen gülene
Oysa çektirdiğin bu çileme
Bir çift gözün bedel be kara gözlüm
Gidende gelende duranda bile
İçimde çırpınıp duranda bile
Sen varsın mukaddes Kur'an da bile
Elif be te se'm kara gözlüm

Black-Eyed Girl

Thousands of times I said, why don't you say it once,
You couldn't say you loved me, my black-eyed girl,
If I'm a hypocrite, why then the purpose,
Why the tears that stream down my face, my black-eyed girl?
Amongst those departing, arriving and pausing
Amongst the ones who flutter about inside of me,
Still you are there even in the Holy Quran.
My Alif, my baa, my taa, my seen, my black-eyed girl.
I've yet to come across someone who understands my condition,
Someone who doesn't laugh at my misery.
Yet, my black-eyed girl, the torment you have caused me,
Is something only two eyes can pay for.
Amongst those departing, arriving and pausing
Amongst the ones who flutter about inside of me,
Still you are there even in the Holy Quran.
My Alif, my baa, my taa, my seen, my black-eyed girl.
