Paroles et traduction Özlem Özdil - İnsan Okudum

İnsan Okudum

Bana okudun mu diye sormayın
Kitap okumadım insan okudum

Kitabı insandan ayrı görmeyin
İnsanı sınırsız umman okudum

Bahçe oldum gül açıldı dalımdan
Toprak oldum canlar geçti yolumdan

Dil bilenler anlamadı dilimden
Derdimin içinde derman okudum derman okudum

Okudum okudum insan okudum
Gönül verdim Şahı Merdan okudum

Okudum okudum insan okudum
Gönül verdim Şahı Merdan okudum

Her çeşit topraktan yaptım tenimi
Damarımı iliğimi canımı

Kerbelada bende döktüm kanımı
Hüseyin zikrettim Hasan okudum

Hak emretti bir dergaha çağrıldım
Yol çetindir düştüm kalktım doğruldum

Sohbet kazanında piştim yoğruldum
Cehlin arasında irfan okudum irfan okudum

Okudum okudum insan okudum
Gönül verdim Şahı Merdan okudum

Okudum okudum insan okudum
Gönül verdim Şahı Merdan okudum

Okudum okudum insan okudum
Gönül verdim Şahı Merdan okudum

Okudum okudum insan okudum
Gönül verdim Şahı Merdan okudum
Okudum okudum insan okudum

I Studied Humans

Don't ask me if I read
I didn't read books, I studied humans

Don't see the book as separate from the human
I studied the boundless ocean of the human

I became a garden, a rose bloomed from my branch
I became soil, and souls passed through my path

Those who know languages did not understand my language
Within my pain, I found the cure, I found the cure

I studied, I studied, I studied humans
I gave my heart to the King of Chivalry, I studied

I studied, I studied, I studied humans
I gave my heart to the King of Chivalry, I studied

I made my body from every kind of soil
My veins, my marrow, my soul

In Karbala, I shed my blood
I chanted Hussein, I uttered Hasan

God commanded, and I was called to a lodge
The path was difficult, I fell, I rose, I stood upright

In the cauldron of companionship, I was cooked, I was kneaded
Amidst the ignorance, I found knowledge, I found knowledge

I studied, I studied, I studied humans
I gave my heart to the King of Chivalry, I studied

I studied, I studied, I studied humans
I gave my heart to the King of Chivalry, I studied

I studied, I studied, I studied humans
I gave my heart to the King of Chivalry, I studied

I studied, I studied, I studied humans
I gave my heart to the King of Chivalry, I studied
I studied, I studied, I studied humans
