Paroles et traduction Tanju Okan - Annem

Annem

Benim melek annem
Yoksa bu son saatin mi?
Gelen ecel mi anne?
Ona sor, canımı ister mi?
Güldürmedim bir gün yaşarken seni
Affet çaldımsa gençliğini
Ağlattımsa günlerce
Bilmedim sağken kıymetini
Yalnız bırakma
Öksüzsem her gün yanarım
Ah, senden öğrendim
Yavruma ben de kurbanım
Bu gidişin dönüşü yok, beni kandırma
Bu yol cennete gider, sakın korkma
Böyle isterdin beni sen anne
Beni de al yanına
Güldürmedim bir gün yaşarken seni
Affet çaldımsa gençliğini
Ağlattımsa günlerce
Bilmedim kıymetini, bilmedim
Bu gidişin dönüşü yok, beni kandırma
Bu yol cennete gider, sakın korkma
Böyle isterdin beni sen anne
Kapatma gözlerini, Allah aşkına!

My Mother

My angel mother
Is this your final hour?
Has my death come, Mother?
Ask him if he wants my soul.
I never made you laugh while you lived.
Forgive me for stealing your youth.
If I made you cry for days.
I never knew your worth while you were alive.
Don't leave me alone.
If I'm an orphan, I'll burn every day.
Oh, I learned from you.
I too would sacrifice myself for my child.
There's no return from this journey, don't deceive me.
This path leads to heaven, don't be afraid.
This is how you wanted me to be, Mother.
Take me with you too.
I never made you laugh while you lived.
Forgive me for stealing your youth.
If I made you cry for days.
I never knew your worth, I didn't know.
There's no return from this journey, don't deceive me.
This path leads to heaven, don't be afraid.
This is how you wanted me to be, Mother.
Don't close your eyes, for the love of God!
