Yolda Bıraktın Lyrics English Translation by Mela Bedel
Mela Bedel describes a relationship where purpose vanished after abandonment. The songwriter admits ‘You stranded me on this road, so don’t come back now’ (Yolda bıraktın, artık gelme), showing the moment trust broke. He stresses how a lover took half his spirit away, leaving only hollow words. His pain grows from being left when he loved most.
Doğdum uyandım, ne manası vardı bu dünyanın?I was born and woke up, questioning the meaning of this world.
Bi’ yarası varmış ki gocundu, kalktı yaralarımIt seems there was a hidden wound that stung, making my own scars flare up.
Birden sen geldin “Tamam” dedim “Buymuş sebebim”Suddenly you arrived, and I told myself, “This is my purpose.”
Ve gittin zaten çok şey vardıThen you left, and even though there was already so much to bear,
Sen de aldın götürdün yarısınıyou still took half of my soul away with you.
Sonra bak ne kaldı?Look at me now, what’s left?
Boş bi’ kelam, yok bi’ davamJust empty words and nothing left to fight for.
Yolda bıraktın, artık gelmeYou stranded me on this road, so don’t come back now.
Yolda bıraktın, çok severkenYou abandoned me right when I loved you the most.
Ben de bıraktım, artık gelmeI’ve let go too, so don’t come back now.
Şimdi dönsen gelip desen “Benimsin sen”If you returned now and told me, “You’re mine,”
Gönlüm hemen inanır ki sanıyorsun hâlâdo you really think my heart would believe you instantly?
Onca dertten geçmemişten yokluğu hiç bilmemiştenFrom one who hasn’t faced such sorrow or known what it’s like to have nothing,
Hayır gelir mi?can any good ever come?
Zaten çok şey vardıThere was already so much to bear,
Sen de aldın götürdün yarısınıand you took half of my soul away with you.
Sonra bak ne kaldı?Look at me now, what’s left?
Boş bi’ kelam, yok bi’ davamJust empty words and nothing left to fight for.
Yolda bıraktın, artık gelmeYou stranded me on this road, so don’t come back now.
Yolda bıraktın, çok severkenYou abandoned me right when I loved you the most.
Ben de bıraktım, artık gelmeI’ve let go too, so don’t come back now.
