ENGLISH
Ben bu çağda ,özgürlük vadedemem ona.
Esaretten uzak tutamam gözlerini,
Sevgiyi koyamam ellerine.
Çiçekler solmaz, güneş hiç batmaz diyemem,
Anlatamam umudu o taze yüreğine.
Her uçan güvercin barış getiremez diyemem,
Bir avuç mutluluğu seremem önüne.
Ben bu çağda iyi ve güzel insanlar güler,
Her masal, mutlu sonla biter diyemem.
In this era, I can’t talk about freedom to him.
I can’t keep his eyes away from captivity,
I can’t place love in his palms.
I can’t say flowers don’t wilt and the sun doesn’t sink,
I cannot describe hope to his fresh heart
I can’t tell him, that each flying dove brings peace
I can’t unfurl a handful of happiness in front of him.
In this age, I cannot claim
That fair and beautiful people are happy,
That fables have happy endings.
