Текст и перевод песни Müslüm Gürses - Bir Fincan Kahve

Bir Fincan Kahve

Dün akşam yolda gördüm,
Seni yıllardan sonra,
Bir yabancı gibiydin,
Dönüp bakmadın bana,
Bunu senden ummazdım,
Çok kırıldım ben sana,

Bir fincan kahve olsam,
Kırk yıl hatırım vardı,
Ömrümü sana verdim,
Dönüp baksan ne vardı.

Yavru yavru huma kuşu yükseklerde seslenir,
Yar göğsümde, bir çift suna beslenir, beslenir,

Yavru yavru, sen ağlama kirpiklerin islanır,
Ben ağlayım ki, belki deli gönül uslanır, uslanır,
Yar ey leney leney

Belki görmem bir daha,
Seni ömrüm boyunca,
Üzülüp ağlar mıydın,
Öldüğümü duyunca,
Eline ne geçerdi,
Beni kabre koyunca,

Bir fincan kahve olsam,
Kırk yıl hatırım vardı,
Ömrümü sana verdim,
Dönüp baksan ne vardı.

A Cup of Coffee

I saw you on the street yesterday evening,
After so many years,
You were like a stranger,
You didn't even look back at me,
I never expected this from you,
I was so hurt.

If I were a cup of coffee,
You would remember me for forty years,
I gave you my life,
What would it have cost you to turn around.

Infant, infant, the hoopoe bird sings high up in the sky,
My love, a pair of nightingales are being fed on my chest,

Infant, infant, don't cry, your eyelashes will get wet,
Let me cry, so that my crazy heart might come to its senses,
My love, oh oh

Perhaps I will never see you again,
In all my life,
Would you feel sorry and cry,
When you hear that I have died,
What would you gain,
When you bury me,

If I were a cup of coffee,
You would remember me for forty years,
I gave you my life,
What would it have cost you to turn around.
