| Geliyor bak kalem kaşlı
| It's coming, look, pencil with eyebrows
|
| Eteği belinde gül de takmış, gül de takmış
| She also wore a rose on her skirt, she also wore a rose
|
| Al dudaklar, mor sümbüller
| Red lips, purple hyacinths
|
| Öyle de güzel ince de belli ince de belli
| It's so beautiful, it's thin, it's thin, it's
|
| Yar beline beline sarılamam, ah geceden duramam
| I can't hug your waist, oh I can't stop the night
|
| Ah öteden beriden bakış atma ah yerimde duramam
| Ah, don't look away, oh I can't stand still
|
| Ah yıkadım kuruttum çarşafı, serdim ipek yorganı
| Oh I washed and dried the sheet, I laid the silk quilt
|
| Ah günahı sevabı boynuma, gel bu gece koynuma
| Oh, the reward of sin is on my neck, come to my bosom tonight
|
| Dedim ona, ey güzel!
| I said to her, O beautiful!
|
| Böyle mi geçer bu geceler, bu geceler?
| Is this how these nights go, these nights?
|
| Neymiş anam bizim bu keder
| What is our mother, this grief
|
| Ne zamana kadar böyle gider, böyle gider?
| How long will it go like this, go like this?
|
| Yar beline beline sarılamam, ah geceden duramam
| I can't hug your waist, oh I can't stop the night
|
| Ah öteden beriden bakış atma ah yerimde duramam
| Ah, don't look away, oh I can't stand still
|
| Ah yıkadım kuruttum çarşafı, serdim ipek yorganı
| Oh I washed and dried the sheet, I laid the silk quilt
|
| Ah günahı sevabı boynuma, gel bu gece koynuma | Oh, the reward of sin is on my neck, come to my bosom tonight |
