SUFFERING NIGHTINGALE

Suffering nightingale, suffering nightingale

Rose is wrapped with thorn nightingale

Old days never come back

Do not tell your crying to wind nightingale

 

Days passed spring came to an end

Fall caused my rosary destroyed

Although I found at last I lost immediately

I fell in love with a hard beloved nightingale

 

For whom do I play my saz

To whom do I tell my heart’s desire

There’s no love except you

Who knows my heart’s pain nightingale

 

In the fate wheel of fortune never turns

Man doesn’t remain same

Masters of yesterday

Became slaves to day nightingale

 

Tomorrow is unknown

You’re not determined at all

Nobody knows your religion

Where’s the direction of Mecca nightingale

 

You’re not strong so much

You don’t have any troubles about richness or poorness

To day in the mountain, tomorrow in the vineyards

You suffer nightingale

 

I’m not eager left over

You have the longest breath

I’m friendless so are you

Do not touch the ring nightingale

 

So many unjusts

Bad mannered unbelievers

Hammer between us

Both to large nail and horse-shoe nightingale

 

Come on let’s migrate from this land

Faraway from hard difficulties

In the vineyards of dervishes

Let’s jump to a branch nightingale

 

You traveled around so many countries

You saw both comrades and enemies

Unlucky as ‘Mazlum’

Who saw anyone else tell nighingale
