Paroles et traduction Selda Bağcan - Hey Gidi Kavak Hey

Hey Gidi Kavak Hey

Bende bir kavak urperir
Nerde olsam sesi gelir
Muhacirligimdan beri
Her agac gibi kavakta
Omrunce durur ayakta
Gozler sose boylarini
Sari sicak yaz gununde
Anadolu koylerini
Hey gidik kavak hey gidi
Beni de gozledi kavak
Geceleri haykirarak
Mapushanenin onunde
Mapushanenin onunde
Sahit ayiplarimiza
Sahit kayiplarimiza
Umudumuzun sahidi
Hey gidi kavak hey gidi
Kavaklarini ormekten
Kuru kuruya sevmekten
Ne cikar ki memleketim
Kara topraga egilip
Alnimin terini silip
Bir tek kavak dikemedim
Hey gidi kavak hey!
Nazim Hikmet beste: selda bagcan

Hey Gidi Kavak Hey

In me, a poplar trembles
Wherever I am, its voice comes
Since my exile
Like every tree, a poplar
Stands for a lifetime
Watches the roads
On a hot, yellow summer's day
The villages of Anatolia
Hey, go poplar, hey go
The poplar watched me too
Shouting at night
In front of the prison
In front of the prison
Witness to our shame
Witness to our losses
Witness to our hope
Hey, go poplar, hey go
From embroidering poplars
From loving unnecessarily
What comes out of it, my homeland?
Bending to the black earth
Wiping the sweat from my forehead
I couldn't plant a single poplar
Hey, go poplar, hey go!
