Default two songs written by Sezen Aksu but sung by Levent Yüksel: sultanım and saka yaptım

The two Levent Yüksel songs I like most on his Askla album, are Sultanim and Saka Yaptim....and what a surprise, they both are written by the great Aksu!
Are there translations available please?

Sultanım

Sultanım, perisanım
ihtiyar oldum senle
ah etmem, feryad etmem
bahtiyar oldum senle

sor senden sonra gün gördüm mü
farketmedin yasadım mı, öldüm mü
ben un ufak savrulurken
sen ellerde hükmünü sürdün mü

gel, uslan da gel artık
ben de vakit dolmadan
ister günahkar ol. ister olma
gel daha fazla solmadan

kulun olayım, kölen olayım

dolani dolani dolasıyorum
mecnun gibi meyhaneleri
alacagı olsun terketti beni sahaneleri
siselere vurdum hazırola durdum
ha geldi, ha gelecek
bitmedi tükenmedi oynak yarin bahaneleri
bitmedi tükenmedi civelek yarin havaleleri


Saka Yaptım

aha bak yazdım buraya
basıp gitmem yakındır
vadesi doldu dolacak
bitti bitiyor eli kulagında

aha bak bozdum yemini
yetti bu kadar tamamdır
aklina bsaina al
iyi kötü karsındaki adamdır

ben var ya ben eger istersem
gül üstüne gül koklarım
hele kızarsam niyet bozarsam
her çiçekten bal toplarım

saka saka yaptım saka yaptım
kandırdım seni
saka saka yaptım saka yaptım
yandırdım seni

beni zorum kendi canimla
yalan dolan hepsi dilimde
cananım çok derinde
senin yerin, hiç kaçarım yok

Sultanım, perisanım
My sultan,I am very upset
ihtiyar oldum senle
I have grown old with you
ah etmem, feryad etmem
I don't sigh,I don't cry
bahtiyar oldum senle
I have became happy with you

sor senden sonra gün gördüm mü
Ask, did I become happy after you?
farketmedin yasadım mı, öldüm mü
You didn't notice if I have lived or died
ben un ufak savrulurken
While I was winnowing like flour
sen ellerde hükmünü sürdün mü
Did you rule in strangers?

gel, uslan da gel artık
Come, become well-behaved come now
ben de vakit dolmadan
Before I come to an end

ister günahkar ol. ister olma
Be a sinner or not
gel daha fazla solmadan
Come before I fade more

kulun olayım, kölen olayım
I shall be your servant,I shall be your slave

dolani dolani dolasıyorum
I am wandering around and walking around
mecnun gibi meyhaneleri
The pubs like Mecnun
alacagı olsun terketti beni sahaneleri
It shall be my debt,magnificient (she) has left me
siselere vurdum hazırola durdum
I have drunk ,I have waited
ha geldi, ha gelecek
She is about to come
bitmedi tükenmedi oynak yarin bahaneleri
Lovely darling's excuses didn't end
bitmedi tükenmedi civelek yarin havaleleri
Lively darling's referrals didn't end

PS I did my best,but it's not easy to translate songs of Sezen Aksu,she uses many idioms and metaphors,they may sound weird in English.I hope my translation helps though.

PPS Mecnun is a hero of famous love story.

Hi Milena, thanks for the sultanim-translation! Yes I heard before that Aksu's words often are difficult to say in another language....even for some turkish people it is like chinese what she sings, I was told...;-)

You're welcome.

BTW,if you are interested in listening songs written by Sezen Aksu from other singers I'd recommend you to listen 1st album of Levent Yüksel.(Med Cezir) It's a classic.

Saka Yaptım
I Made A Joke

aha bak yazdım buraya
Look I wrote it here
basıp gitmem yakındır
I am about to go
vadesi doldu dolacak
It's term is about to expire
bitti bitiyor eli kulagında
It's about to end

aha bak bozdum yemini
Look I violated my oath
yetti bu kadar tamamdır
This is enough,over
aklina bsaina al
Come to your senses
iyi kötü karsındaki adamdır
Good or bad who is opposite of you is a man

ben var ya ben eger istersem
If I want
gül üstüne gül koklarım
I become disloyal
hele kızarsam niyet bozarsam
Even if I get angry if I change my mind
her çiçekten bal toplarım
I love every women

saka saka yaptım saka yaptım
I made a joke I made a joke
kandırdım seni
I deceived you
saka saka yaptım saka yaptım
I made a joke
yandırdım seni
I made you shout

beni zorum kendi canimla
My problem is with my heart
yalan dolan hepsi dilimde
Lie deceit all of them are only in my tongue
cananım çok derinde
My beloved is in very deep
senin yerin, hiç kaçarım yok
Your place,there is no escape
