Lyrics in Turkish


--KAYIP--


Hazin bir siyaha boyandı bulutlar

İkimize ağlar bu nazlı yağmurlar

Umudum azaldı, geçiyor zamanlar

Ayrılık efendi, kulu biz aşıklar



Ellerin avcumda soldu

Yaralı bir ürkek kuştu

Biten bir aşktan çırpınıp uçtu



“Yolun açık olsun” demek isterdim

Boğazım düğümlü, sözlerim kayıp

Bir daha ömrümce kimseyi sevmem

Çünkü bu bedende yüreğim kayıp



Beyaz cennetlerden inecek melekler

Seni korur onlar; dualar, dilekler

Bense bu sevdanın uzak gurbetinde

Savrulurum her gün senin hasretinle



Yarım kalan bir hikayeyiz artık seninle

Ayrı yollara yürüyoruz

Hayat bu...

Serseri bir rüzgar gibi estin sen şimdi uzaklara

Ben göğsümde solgun bir gülle yaşarım yıllarca

Yaşamaksa bu!

Ayrı akşamlara yatıp

Ayrı sabahlara uyanırız bundan sonra

Hataları aşk sanıp

Başka tenlerde avunuruz boşuna

Ve gizli gizli yaralanırız

Şunu bil ki daima

Ben, en güzel yeri hatırana saklarım

Talan olmuş gönül bahçemde

Saçlarımda tel tel hüzünlerle

Gözlerimde azalan güneşlerle

Ben hep seni beklerim bu şehirde

Bir gün dönersin diye

Kendine iyi bak ey sevgili!

Kendine iyi bak en sevgili!




Lyrics in English


The clouds have been painted pathetic black
These coy rains are crying for the two of us
My hope has diminished, time is going on
Separation is the master, we, the lovers, are its slaves

Your hands got pale in my palms
It was a wounded timid bird
It fluttered and flew because of an ended love

I wish I could say “May your way be open/Goodbye”
But my throat is knotted, my words are lost
I won’t love anyone else again throughout my life
Because my heart is lost in this body

The angels will come down from white heavens
Their prayers, their wishes; they will protect you
But I will be scattered every day with your yearning
In the faraway lands of this love

We are an incompleted story from now on
We are walking on separate paths
That’s life...
Like a vagrant wind, you blew to the faraway places
I will live with a wilted rose in my heart for years
If that’s living!
Sleeping at separate nights,
We will wake up in separate mornings from now on
Thinking that the faults are love,
We will be consoled with different skins in vain
And we will be injured secretly
Keep in mind that
I will keep the best place for your memory
In my messed up heart garden,
With strings of melancholies in my hair,
With diminishing suns in my eyes,
I will always wait for you in this city
In order that you may come back some day
Take care of yourself, you beloved!
Take care of yourself, you the most loved!
