Paroles et traduction Sezen Aksu - Namus

Namus

Aradım yıllardır seni her yerde
Bir türlü karşıma çıkmadın namus
Nihayet bir yerde rastladım ama
Utançtan yüzüme bakmadın namus
Yaklaşıp yanına dedim nerdesin
Dedin ki yorulma gelmiyor sesin
Gayretleri boşa gitti herkesin
Kimseyi yanına sokmadın namus
Fazilet dediğin meğer masalmış
Namuslu görünmek kimlere kalmış
Zenginmiş, fakirmiş, halkmış, kralmış
Gördüm ki kimseyi takmadın namus
Hadi yandan
Hadi hadi yandan
Ben senden ne saray ne ev istedim
Seni sevenleri sen sev istedim
Kıvılcım aradım alev istedim
Bir tek mumu bile yakmadın namus
Azizken gözümde sudan ekmekten
Yoruldum uslu dur yapma demekten
Yüzyıllardır namussuzluk etmekten
Bir türlü uslanıp bıkmadın namus
Hadi yandan
Hadi hadi yandan
Hadi yandan
Hadi hadi yandan
Hadi yandan
Hadi hadi yandan

Honor

For years, I've searched for you everywhere
But you never showed your face, Honor
Finally, I found you somewhere
But you turned your face away in shame, Honor
I approached you and asked, "Where have you been?"
You said, "Don't bother, you can't reach me"
Everyone's efforts have been in vain
You haven't let anyone near you, Honor
Apparently, your so-called virtue is a fairy tale
Being honorable is only for certain people
Rich or poor, commoner or king
I've seen that you don't give a damn, Honor
Oh, please
Oh, please, please
I don't want a palace or a house from you
I just want you to love those who love you
I searched for a spark, but all I got was a flame
You didn't even light a single candle, Honor
You were a saint in my eyes, but now I see the truth
I'm tired of behaving myself and telling you to stop
You've been acting dishonorably for centuries
You never learn or change, Honor
Oh, please
Oh, please, please
Oh, please
Oh, please, please
Oh, please
Oh, please, please
