Lyrics

Sevdanin yollarinda düstum ardina
Kah orada kah burada senin pesin sira

Ellerin sicak gecelerse soguk
Benim içim tuhaf tuhaf bedenim donuk
Ellerin sicak gecelerse soguk
Benim içim tuhaf tuhaf ah içim buruk

Gece gündüz yollara vurdum kendimi
Daga tasa tanriya döktüm içimi
Yollar geçit vermiyor yarime
Ah halime bakin da aciyin bir kere

Gülün dikeni batti aman elime
Seven katlanir derler olmuyor nedense
Gülün dikeni batti aman elime
Seven katlanir derler olmuyor nedense
Olmuyor nedense

English translation

I follow you on the paths of love
This way and that, always on your trail

Your hands are warm, but the nights are so cold
Everything inside me feels so strange and my hands are cold
Your hands are warm, but the nights are so cold
Everything inside me feels so strange, everything within me is so old

Day and night, I am always on the move
I plead with the mountains, the valleys, and God
But the paths never leave me to you
Look at me and have sympathy

The rose's thorns pricked my hand
They say if you love, you have to learn to cope with it
The rose's thorns pricked my hand
They say if you love, you have to learn to cope with it
Who knows why
