Zulfu Livaneli - Karli Kayin Ormani
Nazým Hikmet / Z. Livaneli
Karlý kayýn ormanýnda
Yürüyorum geceleyin
Efkarlýyým efkarlýyým
Elini ver nerde elin
Memleket mi yýldýzlar mý
Gençliðim mi daha uzak
Kayýnlarýn arasýnda
Bir pencere sarý sýcakZulfu Livaneli - Karli Kayin Ormani - http://motolyrics.com/zulfu-livaneli/karli-kayin-ormani-lyrics-english-translation.html
Ben ordan geçerken biri
Amca dese gir içeri
Girip yerden selamlasam
Hane içindekileri
Yedi tepeli þehrimde
Býraktým gonca gülümü
Ne ölümden korkmak ayýp
Ne de düþünmek ölümü

Zulfu Livaneli - Snowy beechtrees forest (English translation)
"Karlı kayın ormanı" lyrics:
In the forest of the snowy beechtrees
I'm walking during the night
I'm sad, i'm so sad
Give me your hand, where is your hand?
Is it my homeland, is it the stars
or is it my youth which is farthest
In between the beechtrees
A window, yellow and warm
I wish someone, As i pass by thereZulfu Livaneli - Karli Kayin Ormani - http://motolyrics.com/zulfu-livaneli/karli-kayin-ormani-lyrics-english-translation.html
would say, Uncle, come inside..
To go inside, and greet
Those within the lot
In my city of seven hills
I've left behind my rosebud.
It's no shame to fear death
nor is it to think of death
