Kaderimin en güzel cilvesisin senYou’re the most beautiful twist of my fate,
Değerini bilmezsem taş olayımmay I turn to stone if I don’t know your worth.
Yedi kere maşallah sana‘Maşallah’ to you seven times over,
Nazarına mazallahGod forbid the evil eye touches you.
Yananı görür Allah, di mi?God sees the one who burns for love, right?
Ölüyorum aşkındanI’m dying from my love for you.
