Piiz- 3 songs

I'm trying to shorten the 3-page request list I'm preparing for Milena.
Piiz's Babam Sağ olsun was so good, so I'm hopeful about their lyrics. If these lyrics are awful, lie and make them very profound, please.

Tatlı Uykular

Senden bir nefes yeter canıma
Bir özür yeterki gururuma
Sırt dönmek çok kolay anlasana
Alışmak zor gelir gururuma
Son diyip gidişin
Kendi ipini çekmişliğin
Masum ayrılıklar masallarda yaşanmış
Tatlı uykular sensiz rafa kalkmış
Önce sesler sonra yüzün
Eşlik etti yollarıma hergün
Bir gün eksik birgün fazla
Ömür biter gün doğsada hergün
Önce sesler sonra yüzün
Zehir oldu düşledikçe hergün
Biraz Sensiz biraz bensiz
Ömür biter gün doğsada hergün
Son diyip gidişin
Kendi ipini çekmişliğin
Düşleri kaybetmişim!


HADİ DENİZİM

SEN BENİM HERŞEYİM GÖNLÜNCE OLSUN HERŞEYİN
BİR YANDAN KAMÇI KOPAR
VUR VURABİLDİĞİN KADAR
DURDURMAK NE MÜMKÜN ZAMANI
SÖYLE YARİM BU KAÇINCI ACI
USLAN DENİZİM

GÖZLERİNDE AYNI KARA
SÖZLERİNDE AYNI YARA

DEM OLUP GAM TUTUP GELDİM BEN BU YAŞA
İSYANIM VAR BİLİRİM FELEĞİN TEKERİNDEN GEÇTİM
AYNI GÜCE AYNI YÜREK YETMİYOR ÖĞRENDİM
HADİ DENİZİM USLAN DENİZİM

KURTAR BENİ KUTSAR GİBİ
NİYETİMDEN VAZ GEÇER GİBİ KELEBEK ÖMRÜNE YAS TUTAR GİBİ (2)
GÖZLERİNDE SEN VARAR GİBİ KURTAR BENİ


Müdür*

Sermayesi olduk bu ninninin
Ortağı olduk dönen çemberin
Tabağı olduk değişmez kaderin
İçinden çıkmanın bi yolu yokmu?
Maması olduk dökülen defterin
Manası yok verilen sözlerin
Babasını bulduk annesi kahpenin
Uğursuz hırsızın allahı yok mu?

Kurudu soyun oyun yok artık
Kalmadı kimse müdür bu al buna konuş, al sen buna konuş
Kurudu soyun oyun yok artık
Kalmadı kimse müdür bu al buna konuş, nah sen buna konuş

Uğruna öldük nedensiz hiçlerin
Şeklini bozduk kurumuş piçlerin
Derdine düştük takkenin peçenin
İzini yedik bu bokun bağı yokmu?
zamanla soldu geçmişi hepsinin
Ezildik biz altında bu seslerin
Nedenini sorduk cepteki servetin
Emeğimi çalanın hiç suçu yok mu?

God bless your hands, all of you.

I hope I'm bumping the right thread for you Zaza?

Do you mean to Silver Moon? Aaaaah ayyyy ya ay neredeysin? (insert correct word of where are you ) We need your gentlemanly translations again

Tatlı Uykular (*From the phrase 'tatlı rüyalar' which means 'sweet dreams' )
Sweet Sleeps

Senden bir nefes yeter canıma
One breath from you is enough for (the sake of) my life
Bir özür yeterki gururuma
One apology is enough for my pride
Sırt dönmek çok kolay anlasana
It's so easy to turn my back (on my pride) please understand
Alışmak zor gelir gururuma
It'll be too hard for my pride to get used to it (or 'for me to get used to my pride')
Son diyip gidişin
The way you said 'the end' and left
Kendi ipini çekmişliğin
The way you'd pulled your own strings
Masum ayrılıklar masallarda yaşanmış
Innocent seperations were lived in fairy tales
Tatlı uykular sensiz rafa kalkmış
Sweet sleeps were shelved without you
Önce sesler sonra yüzün
First, the sounds, then, your face
Eşlik etti yollarıma hergün
Accompanied me on my journey everyday
Bir gün eksik birgün fazla
A day too early, a day too late (literally 'one day is missing, one day is surplus')
Ömür biter gün doğsada hergün
Life comes to an end, even though a new day is born everyday
Önce sesler sonra yüzün
First, the sounds, then, your face
Zehir oldu düşledikçe hergün
Became a poison as I kept dreaming (actually not dreaming, rüya: dream, while düş: illusion, fiction, düşlemek: seeing fictitious pictures in your head)
Biraz Sensiz biraz bensiz
A little bit without me, a little bit without you
Ömür biter gün doğsada hergün
Life comes to an end, even though a new day is born everyday
Son diyip gidişin
The way you said 'the end' and left
Kendi ipini çekmişliğin
The way you'd pulled your own strings
Düşleri kaybetmişim!
Seems, I've lost the illusions

Hadi Denizim
Come On, My Sea

sen benİm herŞeyİm gönlünce olsun herŞeyİn
You, my everything, may (your) everything be as you desire
bİr yandan kamçi kopar
Pick off a whip from the side
vur vurabİldİĞİn kadar
Lash as hard as you can
durdurmak ne mümkün zamani
It's not possible to stop time
söyle yarİm bu kaçinci aci
Tell me, love, how many times this pain (how 'manyth' pain is this?)
uslan denİzİm
Settle down, my sea

gözlerİnde ayni kara
In your eyes, the same mainland
sözlerİnde ayni yara
In your words, the same wound

dem olup gam tutup geldİm ben bu yaŞa
I've been steeped, I've kept sorrow, and came to this age (survived up till this age)
İsyanim var bİlİrİm feleĞİn tekerİnden geçtİm
I have a riot, I know, I've been through the wheel of destiny
ayni güce ayni yürek yetmİyor öĞrendİm
The same heart is not enough for the same strength, I've learnt
hadİ denİzİm uslan denİzİm
Come on, my sea, settle down, my sea

kurtar benİ kutsar gİbİ
Save me as if you were blessing me
nİyetİmden vaz geçer gİbİ kelebek ömrüne yas tutar gİbİ
As if I were giving up my intention, (as if I were) mourning the lifespan of a butterfly
gözlerİnde sen varar gİbİ kurtar benİ
(*I think they mean 'sen var gibi' ) Save me, as if you were inside your eyes

Müdür
The Director

Sermayesi olduk bu ninninin
We've become the funds of this lullaby
Ortağı olduk dönen çemberin
We've become the partner of the spinning circle
Tabağı olduk değişmez kaderin
We've become the plate of the unchangeable fate
İçinden çıkmanın bi yolu yokmu?
Isn't there a way out of it?
Maması olduk dökülen defterin
We've become the (baby) food of the disintegrating notebook
Manası yok verilen sözlerin
The promises made have no meaning
Babasını bulduk annesi kahpenin
We've found the father, the mother of the wh0re
Uğursuz hırsızın allahı yok mu?
Doesn't this bloody thief have a God?

Kurudu soyun oyun yok artık
Your kind has become extinct, (there are) no more games anymore
Kalmadı kimse müdür bu al buna konuş, al sen buna konuş
No one is left, this is the director, go and talk to him (actually they say: 'this' about him), you go and talk to him
Kurudu soyun oyun yok artık
Your kind has become extinct, (there are) no more games anymore
Kalmadı kimse müdür bu al buna konuş, nah sen buna konuş
No one is left, this is the director, go and talk to him, hell no never you go and talk to him

Uğruna öldük nedensiz hiçlerin
We've died for the sake of causeless nothings
Şeklini bozduk kurumuş piçlerin
We've disrupted the shape of them desiccated bastards
Derdine düştük takkenin peçenin
We're deeply occupied with caps (Islamic caps) and veils
İzini yedik bu bokun bağı yokmu?
We've swallowed/eaten the trace (of this shıt) doesn't this shıt have a connection?
zamanla soldu geçmişi hepsinin
With time, the past withered away for all of them
Ezildik biz altında bu seslerin
We were squeezed underneath all these sounds
Nedenini sorduk cepteki servetin
We asked/looked for the reason for the money in our pockets
Emeğimi çalanın hiç suçu yok mu?
The one who took credits for all my hard work, isn't he to blame, at all?

Thank you so much. Once again, amazing.

I have a few questions, if you don't mind.

These two lines are slightly Hasekyish in that I don't really understand.
If you do, can you fill me in?

I'm asking about what should be obvious, but I just wanted to check...using "buna" for him...is this a way to insult him, i.e. to make him a thing and not a person?

Do you get the impression that this is a song about authority, in general, or a particular individual?

There are two different versions of this song...on the album version I think he says "gözlerinde seni arar gibi..." but I'm not sure about the other one...it sounded like 'sen varar' but I maybe that has no meaning. too

No question, just I really love this line and how you translated it. So I thought it should be reprinted.

From Tatlı Uykular:

I'm not sure I get this one either.


Thank you again for doing these.

Rotfl and I really loved this I thought I'd quote it

Rica ederim kankam

Well, I did the translation part and left the interpreting for you

No seriously.. I'm not sure what those those two lines you quoted from Müdür are supposed to mean either, they are just too cryptic

You got it right, saying 'bu' instead of 'o' to someone generally sounds demeaning.
And yes, I think its so obvious that its about authorities

Gözlerinde seni arar gibi: As if (I'm) searching for you in your eyes
Oh that makes sooo much more sense than sen varar! cause yea, it just has no meaning..

Alternative translation:
Without you, sweet sleeps were laid aside.. interpret it yourself

Let me interpret these

- I guess here ' tabak' means the food. because we say ' tabağını bitir which means finish ur plate (food in the plate) .
Maması olduk dökülen( , )( how inexistence of a comma changes the meaning ) defterin** DÖKÜLEN MAMASI OLDUK DEFTERİN
We've become the SPILLING (baby) food of notebook ( BUT WHICH NOTEBOOK ) sometimes we use 'defter' instead of fate but i m not sure here if it means so.. :/

-I dont know if i m right but we again say sometimes when we dont care the speech of someone we say ' buna konuş ' by showing our A. S . S . so may be he means that he doesnt care the director . rude ehh?

- I m sure about this at least 'rafa kalkmak or birşeyi rafa kaldırmak ( put something on the shelf ) means to postpone something to do later.. So in that case it means i postpone having sweet sleeps without you. ( so romantic )

Thank you, Kind Upper Member.
I don't know the reason, but somehow PlainChaos has this crazy idea that I should/can think for myself. That makes my head hurt...so you saved me!

This is what I was thinking: We "fed" the unchangeable fate, i.e. it was using us, we were victims of it, etc...

I think my only hope to understand this line will be if I can ask the lyricist someday.

Now I remember this phrase "to shelf something"...I didn't think of that before.

Thank you again PlainChaos (with her crazy ideas) and Berrytr (with her crazy ideas too!).

P.S.

And thank you VivaPalestina, for being so cute.

Duh of course you can think for yourself, ya clever And besides, those lines aren't in any way part of some Turkish idiom or proverb or anything that should make it difficult for foreigners to understand or interpret

..whoever wrote those lines was just on coke when he wrote them
Nah j/k, I just didn't wanna admit I'm lazy

And berrin, please change your avatar asap! I'm drooling all over the place! DOLMA NOW!
