She has a lesson(homework), she is memorizing it / Dersini almis da ediyor ezber
What does your black lined eyes have to do with eyeliner, oh God (means: beautiful eyes do not need eyeliner) / Sürmeli gözlerin sürmeyi neyler
Oh God, i am wounded, oh / Aman aman ben yarelendim aman
This sorrow do not calm me down, it gets me mad / Bu dert beni iflah etmez del’eyler
Am i strong enough to suffer, oh God / Benim dert çekmeye dermanim mi var
Oh God, my one with black lined eyes, oh / Aman aman sürmelim aman
Your eyebrow is placed beautifully above your eye / Kasin çeymelenmis kirpik üstüne
Like cloud raining in the sky / Havada bulutun agdigi gibi
Oh God, i am wounded, oh / Aman aman ben yarelendim aman
Drops fell on and rosy bosoms are wet / Çig düsmüs de gül sineler islanmis
Like rain pouring down on roses / Yagmurun güllere yagdigi gibi
Oh God, my one with black lined eyes, oh / Aman aman sürmelim aman
There is flood in *Yozgat, there is smoke in *Sogluk / Yozgat’i sel almis Sogluk’u duman
I love you truthfully, i swear, believe me / Sitkinan severim billahi inan
Oh God, i am wounded, oh / Aman aman ben yarelendim aman
While i am inside the burying ground when i am dead / Ölünce mezara girdigim zaman
I will hush and let my bones speak / Ben susuyum kemiklerim söylesin
Oh God, my one with black lined eyes, oh / Aman aman sürmelim aman

In generosity and helping others be like a river...
In anger and fury be like dead...
In tolerance be like sea...
Either appear as you are, or be as you look...
