ELLERİM BOŞ Meaning & Lyrics (M Lisa)
The poet uses simple, powerful images to show obsession. One key line translates to, ‘My hands are empty, but my mind is full of you.’ She mentions the beauty of a rose being partly in its thorns, a nod to accepting love’s challenges.
KaçamadımI couldn’t escape,
Yine yakalandımand I’ve been caught once again.
Tam giderken sana bakakaldımJust as I was leaving, I couldn’t stop staring at you.
Nasıl bi’ şey bu?What kind of feeling is this?
Beni delirttinYou’ve completely driven me crazy,
“Gemileri yakalım” dedirttinand made me say, “Let’s risk it all.”
Ellerim boş, aklımda bi’ senMy hands are empty, but my mind is full of you.
İmkânsız odaklanmak sen varkenIt’s impossible to focus when you’re around.
Rüzgârına açalım bi’ yelkenLet’s set sail into your wind,
Gidelim nereye dersenand go wherever you say.
Dediler ki varmış hep peşinde birileriThey said there’s always someone chasing after you,
Arıyomuş telefonunu hep gecelericalling your phone all through the night.
“Kaçarım o zaman” deme arkamdan firariDon’t say, “I’ll run away then,” behind my back like a fugitive.
Sal, sal, salJust let it go, let it go, let it go.
Eminim güzeldir, yine de bi’ ben değilI’m sure she’s beautiful, but she still isn’t me.
Uyumadan önce aklına gelen değilShe’s not the one who crosses your mind before you fall asleep.
E bu işler böyle, sorarlarsa söyleWell, that’s just how love works, tell them if they ask.
Gülün olayı biraz da dikenindeThe beauty of a rose is partly in its thorns.
Ellerim boş, aklımda bi’ senMy hands are empty, but my mind is full of you.
İmkânsız odaklanmak sen varkenIt’s impossible to focus when you’re around.
Rüzgârına açalım bi’ yelkenLet’s set sail into your wind,
Gidelim nereye dersenand go wherever you say.
