Ey Vefasız Lyrics Translation – Celali
The songwriter describes a lover who withers like a rose, asking, ‘Why did I ever fall into this love?’ The repetition of ‘my hands’ and ‘my rose’ underscores the pain of abandonment and regret, making the emotions palpable.
Ey vefasız lal eyledinOh, you faithless one, you’ve struck me dumb,
Dilim dilim dilim dilimtying my tongue in knots, my tongue, my tongue, my tongue
Bırak artık bomboş kalsınJust leave them, let them stay empty now,
Elim elim elim elim elim elim elim elimthese hands of mine, my hands, my hands, my hands, my hands, my hands, my hands, my hands
El kapısı çaldırdın yaYou forced me to knock on a stranger’s door,
Saçlarımı yoldurdun yaand made me tear out my own hair,
Gonca yiken soldurdun yayou withered me while I was still a budding flower,
Gülüm gülüm gülüm gülüm gülüm gülüm gülüm gülümmy rose, my rose, my rose, my rose, my rose, my rose, my rose, my rose
Nereden düştüm ben bu aşkaWhy did I ever fall into this love?
Görmeseydim seni keşkeI wish I’d never laid eyes on you,
Söyle var mı senden başkatell me, is there anyone else out there,
Zalim zalim zalim zalim zalim zalim zalim zalimyou cruel one, so cruel, so cruel, so cruel, so cruel, so cruel, so cruel, so cruel
Âşık Meddahi ölecekMeddahi the Lover is going to die,
Ölünce yüzün gülecekand when he’s gone, you’ll finally have a smile on your face,
Bir gün sana da gelecekbut one day it’ll come for you too,
Ölüm ölüm ölüm ölüm ölüm ölüm ölüm ölümdeath, death, death, death, death, death, death, death
