Lyrics of Dur Be Yeter - Cem Karaca

Dur Be Yeter (original)

Dur be yeter geri kafa
Öküz altı buzağı olmaz
Bu gençliğe yurt emanet, vallah billah
Öpüşmesi yasak olmaz
Bu gençliğe yurt emanet, vallah billah
Düşünmesi yasak olmaz
Dur be yeter kıl bürokrat
Kendi gölgen bela olmaz
Yasa deyip vatandaşa, vallah billah
«Git, yarın gel» demek olmaz
Sırt dayayıp makamına, vallah billah
Olur işi etme olmaz
Dur be yeter dar kafalı
Fabrikasyon insan olmaz
Aynı biçim elbiseler, vallah billah
Kimine uyar kimine uymaz
Kimi kara, kimi aldır, vallah billah
At gözlüklü iflah olmaz
Dur be yeter gamlı baykuş
Bu memleket batıyor olmaz
Vıcık vıcık, didik didik, vallah billah
On parmakta kara olmaz
Biraz sevgi ve hoşgörü, vallah billah
Ümit yoksa, yarın olmaz
Dur be yeter, Kul Karacam
Böyle garip şarkı olmaz
Televizyon ve radyoda, vallah billah
Böyle şarkı tövbe olmaz
Etme ustam olmaz olmaz, vallah billah
Olmaz deme «olmaz» olmaz

(translation)

Stop it, head back
No oxen six calves
Homeland is entrusted to this youth, I swear
kissing is not allowed
Homeland is entrusted to this youth, I swear
It is not forbidden to think
Stop it, enough bureaucrat
Your own shadow is no trouble
Saying law to the citizen, I swear to God
It doesn't mean "Go, come tomorrow"
Put your back to your office, I swear to God
It's okay, don't do it
Stop it, narrow-minded
Fabrication is not human.
The same kind of clothes, I swear
Suits some, doesn't suit some
Some black, some take it, I swear
There's no cure with spectacles
Stop, that's enough, gloomy owl
This country will not sink
Soggy, we scrutinized, I swear
There is no black on ten fingers
A little love and tolerance, I swear
If there is no hope, there will be no tomorrow
Just wait, Kul Karacam
Such a strange song
On television and radio, I swear
Such a song is not repentance
Don't be a master, I swear, I swear
Don't say no, it's not "no"
