Darbe - Stroke

I have seen the universe
It was a strong event
Thousands of people
While they were dying
Did nothing
Only used to look 
This much chaos
Was too much for us
 
A stroke
has happened to me
A stroke
 
I have seen Erdal
In gallows
16 years old
While he was dying
Did  nothing
Only used to look 
Atferwards free
Afterwards free
 
A stroke
Has happened to me
A stroke
Before I go
to war council
Before you go
A stroke
 
Hide yourself
For a strong revenge

 
Shall we feed ,not hang?

[Theo]

DURMA ÖYLE - Don`t stay like that

The game lasts continuously
Even if your heart stops
Even if it appears crooked
A child -your dreams- is going
He/she has got on a rowboat
Later
Is turning into another harmony
Everything
People find what they have lost

Erase all over my teardrop,my salt
Has looked at the essence inside
Has picked the goods
Must reach for another place
Not in too far
Must reach in the open
Is turning into another harmony
Everything
People find what they have lost
Don't stay like that
Ah,don't stay like that

[Theo]

GUNEYE GIDERKEN - While going south

you know "zefir” radio
in the wall of briquet
l heard your voice from there
l embraced your "akcora shirt"

you said "sleep",i slept
assistants said "go on"

in the east the sun was shining
while going south
in the east the sun was shining
while going south

the tobacco field turned yellow
later on,with white bag
in clothes with red dress
women are working

big mountains are purple later on
the highest saw the first

in the east the sun was shining
while going south
in the east the sun was shining
while going south

a little child has just woke up
with sleepy-eyes
the assistant was a child too but..
he wasn`t asleep but screaming

in the east the sun was shining
while going south
in the east the sun was shining
while going south

there was a town away
its minaret was white
with frame which is red
it is our town but we didnt go

it is clear the one who sits near me is from that town
even he looks at me like l am not(from that town)

in the east the sun was shining
while going south
in the east the sun was shining
while going south

Hayat - Life

Try and wear yourself out to accomplish something
Only a few people would appreciate it
And every now and then in different appearances
Sometimes with you, sometimes behind you

There is no such thing as a lie
We saw it but we didn't talk about it

And life has said hold on, when everybody was at home
And life has said hold on, when everything was all right
And life had it enough, said shut up
And life...

Broken dreams, same loneliness
We were so diminished and so worn
Our heads are messed up and it is hard to change
They wouldn't know if the world collapses

And life has said hold on, when everybody was at home

[Theo]

Kis Geliyor -  Winter is coming

winter is coming
with screaming
I dont like that

who comes?
near me
(who)doesnt know

how many times does the sun burn in the middle of the winter?

winter is coming
with screaming
I dont like that

who comes?
near me
(who)doesn`t stop
(who)doesn`t stop

my new dream faded with my sun
new man and new woman were hard before born
mirror,mirror
magical mirror
what did you say to me?

[Theo]

Saklama - Don`t hide

concrete forest's hunter souls are behind doors
they couldnt solve the codes of hungriness,yet
they rub eachother and plunder

life can cut us back as how it put us up
half of us is in the ground
lets veil us a bit
just one lock in not enough for us
it is easy to forget,there is 10 payment to credit card

dont hide
it is moldering
your heart
is in here

concrete forest's hunter souls are behind doors
opened their arms
couldnt solve it's mystery yet
they lean to their past,they are becoming stone

life can cut us back as how it put us up
half of us is in the ground, let's think abit
this light is not enough for us
brassy crows are sharing us

[Theo]

Serseri - Beggar adrift

I`m away from you while falling down
be,how you know
you became my nightmare,so much
it`s good that you won`t be here tomorrow

l dreamed and lost, spoke and damaged
l became "wait upon" in front of the past!
ah my revolution,what l pleased from you?
you didnt come,but l changed

life is empty,meaningless
what would it resemble without advertisement?
you became my partner,so much
it is good that you won`t be here tomorrow

l dreamed and lost,spoke and damaged
l became "wait upon" in front of the past!
ah my revolution,what l pleased from you?
you didnt come,but l changed

i take,i gave, l beat you
you escaped,disposed,sold for nothing!

cry,cry,it passes..

[Theo]

Son deneme - Last essay

you come and have a bite too
even my dust can`t be existed
with an empty shooter in your hand
pray for it to shoot thanks to my bad luck

whatever will come,shall come

you come and have a bite too
even my dust can`t be existed
with an empty shooter in your hand
pray for it to shoot ,again

ghost guns
masks,teases
whatever will come,shall come

last essay - what time is it?
l found you - voice is dense,face is old
l can`t anything anymore,i can`t

[Theo]

Sonu Belli - it`s end is obvious


now it`s starting again
it`s still dark,but that day will come
still covered with snow
that day will come and wipe the traces

kings with bloody hands
who save corners

like a bad film
it's end is obvious at the beginning
my inside is full
is that us,is that me?
like a cheap film
it's end is obvious at the beginning
my inside cries
is this us,is that me?

now it`s starting again
it`s dark,but that day will come
with glory rising
will give life to humans

[Theo]

Yerdim et - Help me

dont say anything,i can`t hear,don`t understand
life is a miracle,sometimes it falls
help me my soul,help me
l heard your voice,but there are many who didn`t hear it

shall cry whoever is without lie
shall hide whoever is without sin
who died because of a lie,who was afraid of time?
the world is lying

angry streets are like a waiting excuse
arrogant claps which come from Texas
l am now in which cruel is remaining
it`s a carnaval,where am l now?

shall cry whoever is without lie
shall hide whoever is without sin
who died because of a lie,who was afraid of time?
there were roses in your hands,and your clothes in blood

don`t say anything,i can`t hear,don`t understand
life is a bomb,it sometimes falls
we are where history stops
it`s a carnaval,where are we now?

shall cry whoever is without lie
shall hide whoever is without sin
who died because of a lie,who was afraid of time?
the world is lying

[Theo]

Yaz Yaz Yaz - Write, write, write

why are we argueing with eachother without stopping?
what need do you have to assault me intentionaly?
why are we seperating friendly and humanly?
and these many years have hurt
if everyday this torture,
if everyday this disorder,
if everyday to this argueing
you thought l could stand
you too, write write write somewhere all of my words
if l am mistaken,get out against me and show me yourself
maybe in the course of time they are wiped from your mind
then you understand this much time went up in smoke

[Theo]

That`s all for now but I can also provide the translations to : Buyuk Dusler, Sevda Cicegi and more... in a couple of days

[sfumato]

actually, i had translated some of the lyrics and was thinking about posting them here, but you acted first . i find some of the translations you found a bit too literal though (and some of them terribly wrong  ). anyway, i've edited some of them and written some from scratch. hope they make sense to you

[sfumato]

sevda çiçeği - love flower

silently, you would bloom at nights
in a nook noone could know or see
in eternal and fathomless emotions
in my calm, desolate and forlorn sleeps
and now my loneliness smells you
it looks for you, asks for you
my love flower

[sfumato]

şirket - corporation

i can't even ask your name
i can't exceed my intentions
i can't cry looking at legitimized violence

the more beautiful,
the hotter,
the closer it is,
the farther away it is

corporate or such, i don't care
even if i would, i wouldn't
if he/she/it is attacking me
i can't pity his/her/its tears

remote controlled frenzy surrounded the justice
i've seen atrocity and felt no fear
there's no damage inside me

was it so hard to face me without your mask on?
the ones who don't have names, don't have voices too?
