LITTLE CHILD

With pearls in his eyes and pain in his heart
The little child is crying being lost in darkness
You mightn’t have a house or parents
You mightn’t have anybody, you might have been scorned
Whatever happens and happens
The time and the days will pass
One day might come and you might be consoled little child.

With pearls in his eyes and pain in his heart
The little child is crying being lost in darkness
You’d had various troubles making you get lost
Strangers had taken the little money you deserve
Whatever happens and happens
The time and the days will pass
One day might come and you might be consoled little child.

THE OLD MAN’S TEARS

Once upon a time I had watched a play somewhere
There was a curled old man in that play
Wearing ragged clothes
Having meaningless glance in his eyes
Being too old, having no energy left, and being deserted,
Left alone, having lived nothing

His tears had neither stopped nor finished
He had so much trouble that hadn’t ever finished
Breathing was his profit, living was his only ambition
Having played the greatest tragedy in the world
On the life stage without curtains
He had passed on, do you have a clue?

WHY FALLING IN LOVE WİTHOUT BEING LOVED?

If eyes see, heart likes and falls in love
The passion to meet lights fire
Reality and dream get mixed into each other
One moment comes and arched eyebrows are frowned.

He had loved a lot of beautiful ones without being loved
He knows that there is no remedy for this trouble
The lover also bears the trouble
Why falling in love without being loved?

Days full of hope and expectation
Passed with happiness and grief
We had tried hard but too hard
But couldn’t answer the riddle called love.

YEARS HAVE PASSED SINCE SPLITTING UP

Years have passed since splitting up, who knows where you are?
I could do anything to see you and hear your voice
Your jetblack eyes, your wavy hair are unforgettable
Never think you’ve been forgotten, you’re always on my mind without being forgotten.

Your memory had stayed somewhere deep in my heart
The oppressive years had pulled you away from me
Noone has said “I love you” except you
Noone has known our love except us
I am left alone and our love has become a song
I have been thinking of you with this song.

THE KANGAROO WITHOUT ITS CHILD

A kangaroo hadn’t been able to have a baby
It had adopted a rabbit and had put it into its bag
The kangaroo had been happy and so had the rabbit
But the others had been angry so,

They had made a plan to get rid of the rabbit
They had kidnapped the rabbit while sleeping
The kangaroo had seen her empty bag when she had woken up
She had been shocked and sorry

And had made an arrangement with the poisonous snake
In the bag had been the snake and the kangaroo among the others
Being afraid of the snake the others had given the rabbit back
And they had said that that was a plan in a plan.

I WOULDN’T LIKE TO BE WITHOUT YOU

I wouldn’t like the world if given
If crowns and thrones were promised,
I wouldn’t like to stay without you and quiet
It is not so easy to desert you
I wouldn’t like it, wouldn’t like to be without you.

ELEPHANT BOY

An African Negro Boy
Had been a magician’s apprentice
Had changed himself into an elephant
Instead of changing an elephant into human

While he had been walking,
In the fields and mountains
A huge thorn had pricked his foot
The elephant had felt too much pain

He had asked the lion, the tiger, the eagle
The fox, the wolf, the owl
The rabbit for help
Whoever had seen the elephant had run away.

Mourning and crying
The elephant had returned to his village
His mother, father, uncle
Had escaped from the elephant with childish voice.

But brave Toro
Moro’s friend
Hadn’t known what fear had been
Had pulled the thorn out.

Moro had been an elephant forever
Hadn’t left Toro
Their story had become
Legendary in the world.

YOU ARE THE ONE

The stars had hung to the sky’s roof
As if they had been a glimmering candle light
The trees had come out from the earth’s deep heart,
Had got the cradle to wag with untimely wind.

You’ve been in my heart with your endless love for months
You must know how much I love you
Don’t care about nonsensical words, let strangers talk
Loving hearts are making the lover live with love

You are the one for me, I am full of longing
Come to me baby, make my expectancy end
Have such a great love that astonishes me
Let the sunshine become dull near your love.

YOU TO YOUR WAY, I TO MINE

You and me,
How wonderful days had we lived
Knowing that those days wouldn’t last
A nice friendship during a few-weeks-holiday
During the moonlit nights, under the trees
In the arms of loneliness we would chat

About richness, poverty, happiness, unhappiness
Fortune, misery for long hours
Perhaps we had found its remedy
Now our ways are separated
You to your way, I to mine

What would happen if there were seas, high mountains?
Since your name is carved on my heart, don’t think I’ll forget about you
Goodbye my sympathetic ear, goodbye my friend
We might meet somewhere one day
We would talk about the past and future
Goodbye my sympathetic ear, goodbye my friend.

Our World

I do wait for the time when our eyes reunite
Like snow waiting for the spring
To melt into water and give life to nature
My heart is covered by the snow for a long time

Come now, hold my hands such as sun, such as spring

We have created a distinct world in our hearts
A world that is always spring, always warm
Our flowers have never faded and they never will
Because it was never autumn and it never will

Dont look upset, dont make the autumn happy
It should not be full of hopes, it can not make this love fade
We watered these roses in our hearts with our tears
Look my love, how much time has passed
And they are still smelling of YOU..
