Lyrics of Kimim Ben - Ayşe Saran

Kimim Ben (original)

Kavga başladı,
Hain gazladı,
Şeytan misali kimler taşladı?
Toplum suçladı,
Korkak naşladı,
Tavşan misali kimler avladı?
Düşman kolladı,
İmkan sağladı,
Hayvan misali kimler dağladı?
Dünya yandı, olmadın engel.
Toprak kan ağladı, dinmedi öfken.
Bazen şah oldun, bazen piyondun.
Şimdi sor kendine:
«Kimim ben?»
Zengin görmedi,
Soylu duymadı,
Maymun misali kimler oynadı?
Entel salladı,
Aydın sormadı,
Timsah misali kimler ağladı?
Dünya yandı, olmadın engel.
Toprak kan ağladı, dinmedi öfken.
Bazen şah oldun, bazen piyondun.
Şimdi sor kendine,
«Kimim ben?»
Yer gök duydu tüm ahali,
Kim namussuz kim havari.
Yandaş medya yemez, içmez
Korkma, yavşak!
Seni çizmez.
Dünya yandı, olmadın engel.
Toprak kan ağladı dinmedi öfken.
Şimdi sor kendine:
«Kimim ben?»

(translation)

The fight started
The traitor gassed,
Who stoned like the devil?
Society blamed
The coward howled,
Who hunted like a rabbit?
The enemy watched
It enabled,
Who branded like an animal?
The world burned, you were not an obstacle.
The soil cried blood, your anger did not cease.
Sometimes you were the king, sometimes you were the pawn.
Now ask yourself:
"Who am I?"
The rich did not see,
The noble did not hear,
Who played like a monkey?
Intellect shook,
Aydın did not ask
Who cried like a crocodile?
The world burned, you were not an obstacle.
The soil cried blood, your anger did not cease.
Sometimes you were the king, sometimes you were the pawn.
Now ask yourself
"Who am I?"
Heaven and earth heard all the people,
Who is dishonest, who is an apostle?
Pro-media does not eat or drink
Fear not, slut!
It won't draw you.
The world burned, you were not an obstacle.
The soil cried blood, your anger did not cease.
Now ask yourself:
"Who am I?"
