POETRY
Oh My Heart
โPOEM by Yahya Azeroฤlu
(Translated from Turkish)
Iโm helpless, thereโs nothing I can do,
I fell apart from my hand like Turan,
Today, my heart is still sad.
I sang like a stateless nightingale,
I kissed you with the lips of separation,
I was longing for my friend, when I was abroad,
Today, my heart is still sad.
Drops donโt know about my lake,
Iโm helpless. I canโt do anything,
As Turan, my hands felt apart,
Today, my heart is still sad.
I sang like a stateless nightingale,
I kisses you with the lips of separation,
Today, my heart is still sad.
Youโve built a palace for every conscious,
Let a soul named Turan be built for it,
Maybe youโll be the one who understand me,
Today, my heart is still sad.
When Azeroฤlu is unlucky,
When the trout becomes dehydrated in water,
When my dreams get lost in dreams,
Today my heart is still sad.
