AH İSTANBUL
Uzanip Kanlica'nin orta yerinde bir taşa
lying down a stone in the midst of Kanlıca
Gözümün yasini yüzdürürüm Hisar'a doğru
I make my tears swim to the citadel (Rumelia or Anatiolian citadel)
Yapacak hiç birsey yok
there is nothing to do
Gitmek istedigi gitti
he wanted to go and went
Hem anliyorum hem çok aci
Both I understand and feel so much pain
Tek tarafli bitti
it has finished unilateral
Bir lodos lazim simdi bana
I need a lodos (south or southwest wind)
Bir kürek bir kayik
a paddle, a boat
Zulada birkaç şişe yakut
there is a few bottle of ruby in hiding place
Yer gök kirmizi
both ground and sky are red
Söverim gelmişine geçmişine ayipsa ayip
I swear all the past, what so if it is a shame
Düşer üstüme akşamdan kalma sabah yildizi
The morning star that was left from the evening falls on me
Ah Istanbul Istanbul olali
Ah since İstanbul is "İstanbul"
Hiç görmedi böyle keder
It has never seen such a suffering
Geberiyorum aşkimdan
I'm dying because of my love
Kalmadi bende gururdan eser
I have no impress of pride any more
Ne aci ne aci insan kendine ne kadar yenik
so biting, so biting that how much human being is defeated by himself
Bulunmadi ihanetin ilaci yürek koca bir kara delik
The cure of betrayal wasn't found, the heart is a huge black hole
Yapacak hiç birsey yok gönül bu sevdi
there is nth to do, this is heart, it loved
Yeni bir ten yeni bir heyecan bilirim üstelik
a new skin, a new excitement; moreover I know
Bir lodos lazim simdi bana
I need a lodos now
Bir kürek bir kayik
A paddle, a boat
Zulada birkaç şişe yakut
there is a few bottle of ruby in the hiding place
Yer gök kirmizi
both ground and sky are red
Söverim gelmisine gecmisine ayipsa ayip
I swear all the past, what so if it is a shame
Düşer üstüme akşamdan kalma sabah yıldızı
The morning star that was left from the evening falls on me
one of the greatest Sezen songs...
