Translation of the song lyrics Hoşgeldin - Hüsnü Arkan, Birsen Tezer

Hoşgeldin (original)

Bugün dağların dumanı aralandı, hoş geldin
Ah ışıklar içinde kaldım, yandım efendim
Sen bana yangın ol efendim, ben sana rüzgar
Tutuşsun gün, yansın geceler, zamanımız dar
Sen bana geç geldin, ben sana erken
Tutuşsun gün, yansın geceler, vaktimiz varken
Bugün günlerden güzellik, sefa geldin, hoş geldin
Ah bu yağmur yalnızlığımmış, dindim efendim
Sen bana yangın ol efendim, ben sana rüzgar
Tutuşsun gün, yansın geceler, zamanımız dar
Sen bana geç kaldın, ben sana erken
Soyunsun gün, sarsın geceler, vaktimiz varken
Sen bana yangın ol efendim, ben sana rüzgar
Tutuşsun gün, yansın geceler, zamanımız dar
Sen bana geç kaldın, ben sana erken
Soyunsun gün, sarsın geceler, vaktimiz varken
Soyunsun gün, yansın geceler, vaktimiz varken

Hoşgeldin (translation)

Today the mountain’s veil of mist was parted—welcome, guest of dawn,
Ah, I stood awash in light’s embrace, consumed, my lady, drawn.
Be fire for me, my sovereign flame, and I—your wandering breeze,
Let day be tinder, nights a blaze—our hours thin and fleet as leaves.
You crossed to me in tardy dusk, I reached you with the early sun,
Let day ignite, let night be kindled, while our time is yet undone.
Today, the calendar is beauty—fortune’s guest, you enter bright,
Ah, this rain was loneliness made flesh; at last I am serene tonight.
Be fire for me, my sovereign flame, and I—your wandering breeze,
Let day be tinder, nights a blaze—our hours thin and fleet as leaves.
You lingered when you came to me, I hurried forth, the race begun,
Let daylight shed its golden robes, let night’s embrace be softly spun—
Be fire for me, my sovereign flame, and I—your wandering breeze,
Let day be tinder, nights a blaze—our hours thin and fleet as leaves.
You lingered when you came to me, I hurried forth, the race begun,
Let daylight shed its golden robes, let night’s embrace be softly spun—
Let daylight shed its golden robes, let night ignite—while time is young.
