Текст и перевод песни Cengiz Özkan - Tokat Yaylası

Tokat Yaylası

Tokat yaylasında yaylayamadım yaylayamadım
Divâne gönlümü anam eğleyemedim
Şu cahil gönlümü anam eğleyemedim
Hamdi kardaşıma söyleyemedim söyleyemedim
Ay karanlık bir gecede vurdular beni
Ölmeden kabire anam koydular beni
Ay karanlık bir gecede vurdular beni
Ölmeden kabire anam koydular beni
Evimizin önünde bir büyük avlu bir büyük avlu
Avlunun içinde anam kır atım bağlı
Avlunun içinde anam kır atım bağlı
Yağlı kurşun yedim ciğerim dağlı
Ciğerim dağlı
Vurma zalım vurma vurma kama yâresi
Bura meydan yeri değil sokak arası
Vurma zalım vurma vurma kama yâresi
Bura meydan yeri değil sokak arası

Tokat Yaylasi

On the Tokat pasture, I could not stay to summer, I could not summer
I could not keep my wild heart entertained, my mother
I could not keep my ignorant heart entertained, my mother
I could not tell Hamdi my brother, I could not tell
They shot me down on a dark moonlit night
They put me in the grave, my mother, before I died
They shot me down on a dark moonlit night
They put me in the grave, my mother, before I died
In front of our house there is a large courtyard, a large courtyard
In the courtyard, my mother, my grey horse is tied up
In the courtyard, my mother, my grey horse is tied up
I was shot with a leaden bullet, my liver is wounded
My liver is wounded
Don't shoot, don't shoot, you cruel shooter, don't shoot with a knife
This is not a public square, it's a back alley
Don't shoot, don't shoot, you cruel shooter, don't shoot with a knife
This is not a public square, it's a back alley
