Kuzey - Sarışın Yarim

[Thin Air]

Could someone kindly translate this song for me please:

Sarışın Yarım /

Bitmedi... Ah bu kara sevda bitmedi /
Yetmedi... Ne yaptıysam tükenmedi /

Allahım... Ne yaptım /
Dinmedi... Bir türlü inanıp geri dönmedi /
Allahım... Ne yaptım /

Sarışın yarim , sarışın yarim /
Yıllar geçsede seni beklerim /
Yarim ömrüm tükense yine sen derim /

Thanks a lot

[Thin Air]

Oh, and this one by Kuzey as well:

Deliveren /

Sana şarkılar yazdım gönlümce /
Bir türlü bitmedi aşkın /
Yaşamayı kahrettin anılar zindan /
Aşkı vuslatı ziyan ettin /

Sen Deliveren beyaz bebek /
Yasemin kokusunda terkedenlerden /
Sen deliveren beyaz bebek /
Güneşimi çalıp da gidenlerden /
Yüreğimi alıp da gidenlerden /

Uzun uzun yollar geçiyor üstümden /
Sarı saçların bariyer olmuş /
Sağım solum kapanmış yolum tıkanmış /
Lanet olsun aşk tıkanmış /

Thank you so much.

My blonde darling / Sarışın Yarım /

It didnt end... Ohh this blind love didnt end / Bitmedi... Ah bu kara sevda bitmedi /
Didnt suffice... Whatever i did, it wasnt over / Yetmedi... Ne yaptıysam tükenmedi /

My God... What did i do / Allahım... Ne yaptım /
Didnt settle down... she never believed and came back / Dinmedi... Bir türlü inanıp geri dönmedi /
My God... What did i do / Allahım... Ne yaptım /

My blonde darling, my blonde darling / Sarışın yarim , sarışın yarim /
Even if the years pass by, i (will) wait for you / Yıllar geçsede seni beklerim /
My darling, even my life is wasted, i (will) say "you" again / Yarim ömrüm tükense yine sen derim /

[pinar85]

Deliveren /

I wrote songs for you from my heart / Sana şarkılar yazdım gönlümce /
Your love was never over / Bir türlü bitmedi aşkın /
You confounded/grieved living, memories are prison / Yaşamayı kahrettin anılar zindan /
You wasted love and the reunion with the beloved / Aşkı vuslatı ziyan ettin /

You are a *wish white baby / Sen *Deliveren beyaz bebek / (*not sure about the meaning of this word)
(You are) one of them who leaves in (the time of) smell of jasmines / Yasemin kokusunda terkedenlerden /
You are a wish white baby / Sen deliveren beyaz bebek /
(You are) one of them who steals my sun and goes away / Güneşimi çalıp da gidenlerden /
one of them who takes my heart and goes away / Yüreğimi alıp da gidenlerden /

Long and long roads are on me / Uzun uzun yollar geçiyor üstümden /
Your blonde hair has turned into barrier / Sarı saçların bariyer olmuş /
My right and left sides are stuck, my road is stuck / Sağım solum kapanmış yolum tıkanmış /
Damn, love is stuck / Lanet olsun aşk tıkanmış /

[Thin Air]

This is just excellent. Thank you kindly Pinar.

Pinar, just one question regarding the line above. I couldn't quite understand the English translation. Does it means, "I've wasted my life, I will nonetheless see you again." Would this be another alternative to that line in Turkish? "I will say "you" again" doesn't make much sense, which is why I was slightly confused about this line.

"I've wasted my life, I will nonetheless see you again." is not the alternative translation to "Ömrüm tükense yine sen derim " I think.

I will say you again means "I will love you again/I don't want any one else/I nonetheless choose you " here...

Even If my life comes to the end, I will nonetheless love you again

Its sometimes being hard to translate such poems to turkish or any other language and also give the same meaning.If you think that It does not make sense you should know this difficulty...

Of course, I'm well aware that it's quite difficult to capture the same sort of meaning whenever trying to translate a word (or sentence) over into English. This is considering that they can be uncomparable when trying to interpret the exact same though, emotion, reaction, meaing etc across. Nonetheless, you've all done an excellent job at explaining my question, so I greatly appericiate that.

you are welcome thin air! anytime for you! you know there is always a confusion about literal translation. and i prefer free translation but as told u before, there are people who try to learn turkish and literal translation would be better 4 them. anyway, when u have questions just feel free to ask!

and thank you guys for the clarification
