    Default Merhaba, I need translation of "Gözlerin" (Zülfü Livanelli)

    GÖZLERIN

    Düşlerin parlayıp söndüğü yerde
    Buluşmak seninle bir akşam üstü
    Umarsız şarkılar dudağımda bir yarım ezgi
    Sığınmak, gözlerine sığınmak bir akşam üstü

    Gözlerin bir çığlık, bir yaralı haykırış
    Gözlerin bu gece çok uzaktan geçen bir gemi

    Bir orman bir gece kar altındayken
    Çocuksu, uçarı koşmak seninle
    Elini avcumda bulup yitirmek, yitirmek
    Sığınmak, ellerine sığınmak bir gece vakti

    Ellerin bir martı, telaşlı ve ürkek
    Ellerin fırtınada çırpınan bir beyaz yelken

    Bir kenti böylece bırakıp gitmek
    İçinde bin kaygı, binbir soruyla
    Bitmemiş bir şarkı dudağında bir yarım ezgi
    Sığınmak, şarkılara sığınmak bir ömür boyu

    Gözlerin bir çığlık, bir yaralı haykırış
    Gözlerin bu gece çok uzaktan geçen bir gemi
    Ellerin bir martı, telaşlı ve ürkek
    Ellerin fırtınada çırpınan bir beyaz yelken

    Your eyes - GÖZLERIN

    Where the hopes flame up and go out - Düşlerin parlayıp söndüğü yerde
    Meeting with you an afternoon - Buluşmak seninle bir akşam üstü
    The hopeless songs are a half-done melody on my lips - Umarsız şarkılar dudağımda bir yarım ezgi
    To take shelter, take shelter in your eyes an afternoon - Sığınmak, gözlerine sığınmak bir akşam üstü

    Your eyes are a scream, a wounded shout - Gözlerin bir çığlık, bir yaralı haykırış
    Tonight your eyes are a ship passing from too far away - Gözlerin bu gece çok uzaktan geçen bir gemi

    When a forest is snowed under a night - Bir orman bir gece kar altındayken
    To run like a child,giddy with you - Çocuksu, uçarı koşmak seninle
    To find your hand in mine then lose,lose - Elini avcumda bulup yitirmek, yitirmek
    To take shelter,take shelter in your hands a night time - Sığınmak, ellerine sığınmak bir gece vakti

    Your hands are a seagull,fussy and timid - Ellerin bir martı, telaşlı ve ürkek
    Your hands are a white canvas flaping in storm - Ellerin fırtınada çırpınan bir beyaz yelken

    Leaving a city in this way - Bir kenti böylece bırakıp gitmek
    With one thousand worry, numerous question in you - İçinde bin kaygı, binbir soruyla
    An incomplete song is a half-done melody on my lips - Bitmemiş bir şarkı dudağında bir yarım ezgi
    To take a shelter, take a shelter in songs a lifelong - Sığınmak, şarkılara sığınmak bir ömür boyu

    Your eyes are a scream, a wounded shout - Gözlerin bir çığlık, bir yaralı haykırış
    Tonight your eyes are a ship passing from too far away - Gözlerin bu gece çok uzaktan geçen bir gemi
    Your hands are a seagull,fussy and timid - Ellerin bir martı, telaşlı ve ürkek
    Your hands are a white canvas flaping in storm - Ellerin fırtınada çırpınan bir beyaz yelken

    Staying awake to chase a dream, tasting the air you're breathing in. I hope I won't forget a thing. (muse)

    Merhaba Marmaris,

    I travelled to Istanbul on April, and I started to have interest in turkish culture (specially leftist wing, as you see...). Now I have friends in Turkey, and I can answer them about music, literature and language, and step by step i'm learning, and showing to others turkish culture (too unknown in Spain, and generally in EU) with different posts in my blog.

    And this forum is very useful to know better your musical culture.

    Görüsürüz!
