Köşe Bucak Lyrics Translation – Efo | Mehmet Elmas
EFO sings about searching every corner for someone who’s gone, holding them close in memory. He mentions pressing his beloved to his chest, calling them his own, even in absence. The line ‘I’d serve twenty years in prison, not just ten’ shows the depth of his regret and devotion.
Köşe bucak aradım hep seniI’ve searched every corner for you,
Yar diye diye bağrıma bastımpressing you to my chest, calling you my beloved.
En derin duygulardayımI’m lost in the deepest of emotions,
Sensiz firarlardayımfeeling like a fugitive without you.
Köşe bucak aradım hep seniI’ve searched every corner for you,
Yar diye diye bağrıma bastımpressing you to my chest, calling you my beloved.
En derin duygulardayımI’m lost in the deepest of emotions,
Sensiz firarlardayımfeeling like a fugitive without you.
Müebbet değilsin illakiYou aren’t a life sentence, surely,
Çıkarsın aklımdanyou’ll eventually fade from my mind.
Sensiz de yaşarım ben illakiI can definitely live without you,
Kendini vazgeçilmez sanmadon’t think you’re indispensable.
Dur durak bilemediğimI couldn’t find a place to rest,
Bu sokaklar dar geldi banathese streets have become too narrow for me.
Seni son kez bi görebilseydimIf only I could see you one last time,
On değil yirmi yıl yatarım mahpustaI’d serve twenty years in prison, not just ten.
(Eeeey) derdim başımdan aşkın(Eeeey) my troubles are overflowing,
(Meeeyler) bu gece yansın İstanbul(Drinks) let Istanbul burn to the ground tonight.
Senle bir olamadımI couldn’t be one with you,
Yerle bir oldum sayendebut I was destroyed because of you.
Kendimi bulamadımI couldn’t find myself,
Yerim yok muydu hikayendewas there no place for me in your story?
Senle bir olamadımI couldn’t be one with you,
Yerle bir oldum sayendebut I was destroyed because of you.
Kendimi bulamadımI couldn’t find myself,
Yerim yok muydu hikayendewas there no place for me in your story?
Köşe bucak aradım hep seniI’ve searched every corner for you,
Yar diye diye bağrıma bastımpressing you to my chest, calling you my beloved.
En derin duygulardayımI’m lost in the deepest of emotions,
Sensiz firarlardayımfeeling like a fugitive without you.
Köşe bucak aradım hep seniI’ve searched every corner for you,
Yar diye diye bağrıma bastımpressing you to my chest, calling you my beloved.
En derin duygulardayımI’m lost in the deepest of emotions,
Sensiz firarlardayımfeeling like a fugitive without you.
