Gönülçelen Lyrics English Translation by M Lisa | Teoman

Teoman sets the scene with someone who has removed their emotional armor and cleared away broken pieces of their heart. The narrator describes their own trembling hands and bitten nails compared to the beautiful but empty people around them. A raw confession follows, where the lover admits ‘I’ve betrayed you too’ (Ben de seni aldattım), revealing that both partners have hurt each other in this complex relationship. The songwriter describes the person as both a wound and a bandage, capturing the painful dependency.

Kırıklarını aldırdım kalbiminI’ve cleared away the broken pieces of my heart,
Zırhımı çıkarttım, astım portmantoyaI took off my armor and hung it on the rack.
Güzel vücutlar, boş suratlarThere are beautiful bodies and empty faces,
Benimse yenmiş tırnaklarım, titrek ellerim varwhile I’m left with bitten nails and trembling hands.
“Evet” dedi, “Ben de seni aldattım“Yes,” she said, “I’ve betrayed you too,
Bir kez de değil üstelikand not just once, either.
Çünkü beni çok kanattınBecause you made me bleed so deeply,
Çok sevdiğim bir yalandın”you were a lie that I truly loved.”
Gönülçelen, gönülçelenHeartbreaker, heartbreaker,
Aynı anda utanmadanso shameless all at once,
Hem kırıcı, hem kırılganyou’re both hurtful and so fragile.
Yordun beni gönülçelenYou’ve worn me down, heartbreaker.
Kırıklarını aldırdım kalbiminI’ve cleared away the broken pieces of my heart,
Zırhımı çıkarttım, astım portmantoyaI took off my armor and hung it on the rack.
Güzel vücutlar, boş suratlarThere are beautiful bodies and empty faces,
Benimse yenmiş tırnaklarım, titrek ellerim varwhile I’m left with bitten nails and trembling hands.
“Evet” dedi, “Ben de seni aldattım“Yes,” she said, “I’ve betrayed you too,
Bir kez de değil üstelikand not just once, either.
Çünkü beni çok kanattınBecause you made me bleed so deeply,
Çok sevdiğim bir yalandın”you were a lie that I truly loved.”
Gönülçelen, gönülçelenHeartbreaker, heartbreaker,
Aynı anda utanmadanso shameless all at once,
Hem kırıcı hem kırılganyou’re both hurtful and so fragile.
Yordun beni gönülçelenYou’ve worn me down, heartbreaker.
Gönülçelen, gönülçelenHeartbreaker, heartbreaker,
Biraz gerçek, biraz yalana little bit of truth, a little bit of a lie.
Hem yara bandım hem yaramYou’re both my bandage and my wound.
Bitsin artık gönülçelenLet this be over now, heartbreaker.
