Ötme bülbül ötme şen değil bağım
Dost senin derdinden ben yana yana
Tükendi fitilim eridi yağım
Dost senin derdinden ben yana yana

Deryadan bölünmüş sellere döndüm
Ateşi kararmış küllere döndüm
Vakitsiz açılmış güllere döndüm
Dost senin derdinden ben yana yana

Haberin duyarsın peyikler ile
Yaramı sarsınlar şehidler ile
Kırk yıl dağda gezdim geyikler ile
Dost senin derdinden ben yana yana

Abdal Pir Sultan'ım, doldum eksildim
Yemeden içmeden sudan kesildim
Zülfün kemendine kondum asıldım
Dost senin derdinden ben yana yana

don’t sing nightingale, don’t sing, for there’s no joy in my garden
i’m burning, my friend, from the pain you caused me
my wick was burnt out and no oil was left in my lamp
i’m burning, my friend, from the pain you caused me

i became like rivers separated from the sea
i became like ashes of an extinguished fire
i became like roses that bloomed before their time
i’m burning, my friend, from the pain you caused me

you’ll hear news about me through messengers
let them dress my wound together with (or, by) the martyrs
i've wandered with the wild deers in the mountains for forty years
i’m burning, my friend, from the pain you caused me

i, abdal pir sultan, waxed and waned
i was put off eating and drinking
i was put in your ear-locks and hanged
i’m burning, my friend, from the pain you caused me

Merhaba ilkin ,
tesekurler zor bir parcayi cevirmeye calismissin ama ,ceviri deyisin bazi satirlarinda anlamindan cok uzak


"Dost senin derdinden ben yana yana" aslinda dostumun,cozulmesi guc olan yada cozumsuz olan dertlerinden dolayi(Mesela kanser olmus sevdigin bir arkadasinin derdine ;kanserli olan o arkadasindan daha fazla uzulmek) kendisini cozum bulabilmek icin heba etmek anlaminda soylenmistir.
Aksi takdirde pir sultanin Kendine ait derdi olmamis ,sosyal bir halk ozani olarak toplumdaki sorunlara cozum bulmak icin ugrasmis ve sivasta Asilarak oldurulmeside, toplumun degerleri ve sorunlarini kendi hayatindan daha degerli buldugundan dolayidir.
umarim siirin en anlamli misrasini asagidaki gibi cevirirsem kizmassin.

Dost senin derdinden ben yana yana
comrade/intimate,I am burning with your sadness (I am feeling your sadness in my heart more than you do))
ve
don’t sing nightingale, do not sing, for there’s no merry in place

beni mazur gor ,kusura bakma
yanlisim varsa lutfen duzelt.

Ahmet.
