Paroles et traduction Uğur Işılak - Bir Zamanlar

Bir Zamanlar

Yarmışız edvarı fetretten kalan yeldaları
Fikri ferda doğmadan yağdırmışız ferdaları
Öyle ferdalar ki kaldırmış serapa alemi
Dideler bir cavidani fecrin olmuş mahremi
Dideler bir cavidani fecrin olmuş mahremi
Yirmi beş yıl, yirmi beş bin yıl kadar feyyaz imiş
Bak ne ani bir tekamül bak ki hala mündehiş
Göster Allah′ım bu millet kurtulur tek mucize
Bir utanmak hissi ver gaib hazinenden bize
Bir utanmak hissi ver gaib hazinenden bize
Bir zamanlar biz de millet hem nasıl milletmişiz
Gelmişiz dünyaya milliyet nedir öğretmişiz
Kapkaranlıkken bütün afaki insaniyetin
Nur olup fışkırmışız ta sinesinden zulmetin
Bir zamanlar biz de millet hem nasıl milletmişiz
Gelmişiz dünyaya milliyet nedir öğretmişiz
Kapkaranlıkken bütün afaki insaniyetin
Nur olup fışkırmışız ta sinesinden zulmetin
Nehyi maruf emri münkerdir gezen meydanda bak
En metin ahlakımız yahud görüp aldırmamak
Yıktı bin melun kalem namusu bizler uymadık
Susmak evladır deyip sustuk sanırsın duymadık
Susmak evladır deyip sustuk sanırsın duymadık
Kustu bin murdar ağız şer'in bütün ahkamına
Ah bir ses bari yükselseydi nefret namına
Göster Allah′ım bu millet kurtulur tek mucize
Bir utanmak hissi ver gaib hazinenden bize
Bir utanmak hissi ver gaib hazinenden bize
Bir zamanlar biz de millet hem nasıl milletmişiz
Gelmişiz dünyaya milliyet nedir öğretmişiz
Kapkaranlıkken bütün afaki insaniyetin
Nur olup fışkırmışız ta sinesinden zulmetin
Bir zamanlar biz de millet hem nasıl milletmişiz
Gelmişiz dünyaya milliyet nedir öğretmişiz
Kapkaranlıkken bütün afaki insaniyetin
Nur olup fışkırmışız ta sinesinden zulmetin
Bir zamanlar biz de millet hem nasıl milletmişiz
Gelmişiz dünyaya milliyet nedir öğretmişiz
Kapkaranlıkken bütün afaki insaniyetin
Nur olup fışkırmışız ta sinesinden zulmetin

Once Upon a Time

We have torn through the storms that remained from the old age of misery
Before an individual thought arose, we showered the individuals
Such individuals that have lifted the whole world
The eyes have become the confidants of an eternal dawn
The eyes have become the confidants of an eternal dawn
Twenty-five years, have been as bountiful as twenty-five thousand years
Look how sudden a development, look how still terrifying
Show me, O God, this nation can only be saved by a miracle
Give us a sense of shame from your hidden treasury
Give us a sense of shame from your hidden treasury
Once upon a time, we too were a nation, and what a nation we were
We came into the world to teach what nationality is
When all of humanity was in darkness
We burst forth as light from the breast of darkness
Once upon a time, we too were a nation, and what a nation we were
We came into the world to teach what nationality is
When all of humanity was in darkness
We burst forth as light from the breast of darkness
Denying the good and commanding the evil, look, it's everywhere
Our greatest morality is perhaps to see and ignore
A thousand cursed pens have destroyed our honor, we have not obeyed
They say silence is golden, we have been silent as if we have not heard
They say silence is golden, we have been silent as if we have not heard
A thousand filthy mouths have vomited on all the rules of religion
Oh, if only a voice would rise up in the name of hatred
Show me, O God, this nation can only be saved by a miracle
Give us a sense of shame from your hidden treasury
Give us a sense of shame from your hidden treasury
Once upon a time, we too were a nation, and what a nation we were
We came into the world to teach what nationality is
When all of humanity was in darkness
We burst forth as light from the breast of darkness
Once upon a time, we too were a nation, and what a nation we were
We came into the world to teach what nationality is
When all of humanity was in darkness
We burst forth as light from the breast of darkness
Once upon a time, we too were a nation, and what a nation we were
We came into the world to teach what nationality is
When all of humanity was in darkness
We burst forth as light from the breast of darkness
