Текст и перевод песни Neşet Ertaş - Şâd Olup Gülmedim

Şâd Olup Gülmedim

Şad olup gülmedim de eller içinde
Soldu benim gülüm, güller içinde
Bir bahtı karalıyım oy kullar içinde
Gitti yarim, gurbet elden gelmedi

Gurbete gideni de gelmez diyorlar
Akar gözyaşları, dinmez diyorlar
Öksüzler murada ermez diyorlar
İşte benim nazlı yarim gelmedi

Garipler murada ermez diyorlar
Gitti yarim, gurbet elden gelmedi

I Didn't Laugh With Joy

I didn't laugh with joy, even among my friends
My rose withered, among the roses
I'm cursed with bad luck, among the servants
My beloved left, she didn't come back from the foreign land

They say those who go to foreign lands don't come back
Tears flow, they say they don't stop
They say orphans don't reach their desires
My delicate darling, she didn't come back

They say the poor don't reach their desires
My beloved left, she didn't come back from the foreign land
