Translation of the song lyrics Namus - Sezen Aksu

Namus (original)

Aradım yıllardır seni her yerde
Bir türlü karşıma çıkmadın namus
Nihayet bir yerde rastladım ama
Utançtan yüzüme bakmadın namus
Yaklaşıp yanına dedim: «Ner'desin?»
Dedin ki: «Yorulma, gelmiyor sesin.»
Gayretleri boşa gitti herkesin
Kimseyi yanına sokmadın namus
Fazilet dediğin meğer masalmış
Namuslu görünmek kimlere kalmış
Zenginmiş, fakirmiş, halkmış, kralmış
Gördüm ki kimseyi takmadın namus
Hadi yandan
Hadi, hadi yandan
Ben senden ne saray, ne ev istedim
Seni sevenleri sen sev istedim
Kıvılcım aradım, alev istedim
Bir tek mumu bile yakmadın namus
Azizken gözümde sudan ekmekten
Yoruldum «Uslu dur, yapma!»
demekten
Yüzyıllardır namussuzluk etmekten
Bir türlü uslanıp bıkmadın namus
Hadi yandan
Hadi, hadi yandan

Namus (translation)

I've been looking for you everywhere for years
You never appeared before me, honor
I finally found it somewhere but
You didn't look at me with shame, honor
I approached and said to him: "Where are you?"
You said: "Don't get tired, your voice doesn't come."
Everyone's efforts were wasted
You didn't let anyone near you, honor
It turns out that what you call virtue is a fairy tale.
Who's up to look honorable?
Rich, poor, common, king
I saw that you did not care about anyone, honor
come on side
Come on, come on side
I did not want a palace or a house from you.
I wanted you to love those who love you
I sought sparks, I wanted flames
You didn't light a single candle, honor
When I was a saint, from water and bread in my eyes
I'm tired "Be good, don't do it!"
from saying
For centuries of dishonor
You never got tired of it, honor
come on side
Come on, come on side
