Lyrics of Babama Ağıt - Aşık Mahzuni Şerif

Babama Ağıt (original)

Gardaş bu hızla nere gidersin?
Gardaş bu hızla nere gidersin?
Zalım Murad aldı nazlı babamı, oy, babamı
Antep ellerinde kilis yolunda
Antep ellerinde kilis yolunda
Zalım Murad aldı nazlı babamı, oy, babamı
Murad'ın firması kınalar yaksın, kınalar yaksın
Katil şoföruna paralar taksın, babam, babam oy
İlgili bakmadı insanlık baksın
İlgili bakmadı insanlık baksın
Zalım Murad aldı nazlı babamı, oy, babamı
Issız koydun benim garip yuvamı, oy, yuvamı, yuvamı
Yuvamı, yuvamı
Sekiz yerden el ayağı kırılmış, kırılmış
Beyni delik deşik, gözü yorulmuş, babam, babam oy
Babamın davası kimden sorulmuş, kimden sorulmuş?
Zalım Murad aldı nazlı babamı, oy, babamı
Issız koydun benim garip yuvamı, oy, yuvamı, yuvamı
Yuvamı
Murad icad oldu azrail durdu
Murad icad oldu azrail durdu
Nice babaların belini kırdı, babam, babam, oy, babam oy
Zalım Murad aldın nazlı babamı, oy, babamı
Issız koydun benim garip yuvamı, dost, yuvamı
Vah yuvamı, yuvam

(translation)

Where would you go at this speed?
Where would you go at this speed?
Cruel Murad took my coy father, oh, my father
On the way to Kilis in the hands of Antep
On the way to Kilis in the hands of Antep
Cruel Murad took my coy father, oh, my father
Let Murad's firm burn henna, let the henna burn
Let the killer pay his driver, daddy, daddy
Not interested, let humanity look
Not interested, let humanity look
Cruel Murad took my coy father, oh, my father
You put my strange home, oh, my home, my home
My home, my home
Broken hands and feet in eight places
His brain is full of holes, his eyes are tired, my father is my father.
From whom was my father's case asked, from whom?
Cruel Murad took my coy father, oh, my father
You put my strange home, oh, my home, my home
my nest
Murad was invented, Azrael stopped
Murad was invented, Azrael stopped
Many fathers broke their backs, my father, my father, oy, my father oy
Cruel Murad, you took my coy father, oh, my father
You left my strange home, friend, homeless
Oh my home, my home
