Hallo,
Could anybody help me? I'd want to read the English translation of Sibel Tüzün's "cannetin çocukları". I'd also love to know if I could find somewhere at least the guidar's tabs or sheet music because, even if she's a woman and I'm a man, if the lyrics are adaptables, I would love to try and play and sing it for my friends.

Here are the lyrics:

yetmedi saatler, hayatlar yetmedi
süre doldu sadece anılar birikti
gittiler mi yoksa, yalnız döndüler mi
onlar cannetin, cannetin çocukları
yaşananlar yaşandı, soliklar tükendi
bedenler yokoldu ama ruhlar söner mi
sevgiler, üzüntüler, hayaller hiç miydi
onlar cannetin, cannetin çocukları
ne derdimiz vardı ki o zaman bu hayatla
niye üzdük birbirmizi yanışla doğruyla
neden sevdik neden, neden kavga ettik
sonumuz bir avuç topraksa
niye saatler kurduk uyandık şafakta
ne zorumuz vardı bizim tarih coğrafyayla
neden terkedildik neden, neden seviştik
sonumuz bir avuç topraksa
gerçek anlam nerde, dünya hangi dünya
onlar döndülerse ne bekliyoruz hala
bizler yaşıyor bizlerse boşlukta

hi there,
I have translated the song but i have never heard it, nore do i know how to get the tabs. I hope someone else will help you with that. I usually translate line by line but the lyrics were so beautifully written that i decided to delete the turkish bits so you can read the complete translation without having to skip the turkish bits

THE CHILDREN OF PARADISE

the hours were not enough, the lives were not enough
the time was up, the memories kept
did they leave or did they simply return
they are the children of heaven, heaven
whatever's lived is lived, the breaths are used up
the bodies got vanished, but do the souls ever vanish
the loves, heartaches, dreams, were they simply nothing?
they are the children of heaven, paradise
what heartache was there to have then in this life?
why did we hurt eachother with the rights and the wrongs?
why did we love? we did we fight?
if we all were going to end up dead
why did we set the alarm clocks and woke up at dawn
why did we bother learning the history and the geography
why were we left (by our lovers) and why did we make love?
if we were all going to end up dead
where actually is the real meaning, which world is the true world?
If they have returned, what are we still awaiting?
We are alive, yet we are hanging in the space

What a beautiful lyrics!! Thank you! Now I love that song even more!
