Lyrics of Askerliğin Efkarı - Burak Kut

Askerliğin Efkarı (original)

Hasretlik çekilmiyor sıla özlemiyle
Bayramın birinci günü gurbet illerinde
Askerliğin efkarı basmış beni de
Doğruymuş anam ağlar geride
Hasretlik çekilmiyor sıla özlemiyle
Bayramın birinci günü gurbet illerinde
Askerliğin efkarı basmış beni de
Doğruymuş anam ağlar geride
Yine de sevmek, kedere gülmek
Sabreylemek düşer payıma
Ne demişler yarın ola hayrola
Yine de sevmek, kedere gülmek
Sabreylemek düşer payıma
Ne demişler yarın ola hayrola
Arkadaşım Mehmet gariban, mektubu elinde
Nur topu bir kızı olmuş yazıyor içinde
Askerliğin efkarı basmış bizi de
Elbet biter sayılı gün geçecek

(translation)

There is no longing with the longing for home
On the first day of the feast, in the provinces of expatriate
The disgrace of the military has overtaken me as well.
It's true, my mother cries behind
There is no longing with the longing for home
On the first day of the feast, in the provinces of expatriate
The disgrace of the military has overtaken me as well.
It's true, my mother cries behind
Still to love, to laugh at sorrow
Patience falls on my share
What did they say tomorrow
Still to love, to laugh at sorrow
Patience falls on my share
What did they say tomorrow
My friend Mehmet gariban has the letter in his hand.
It says that he had a daughter with the light ball.
The disgrace of the military has overtaken us as well.
Surely it will end, few days will pass
