| Bir demet yasemen | A bunch of jasmine |
| Aşkımın tek hatırası | The only memory of my love |
| Bir demet yasemen | A bunch of jasmine |
| Aşkımın tek hatırası | The only memory of my love |
| Bitmiyor ayrılık | There is no end to separation |
| Dinmiyor gönlümün | There is no end to my heart's |
| Hicran hicran hicran yarası | Grief, grief, grief wound |
| Bitmiyor ayrılık | There is no end to separation |
| Dinmiyor gönlümün | There is no end to my heart's |
| Hicran hicran hicran yarası | Grief, grief, grief wound |
| Ağlasam inlesem, silinmez | If I cried or moaned, won't be erased, |
| Bahtın yarası | My destiny's wound |
| Ağlasam inlesem, silinmez | If I cried or moaned, won't be erased, |
| Bahtın yarası | My destiny's wound |
| Bitmiyor ayrılık | There is no end to separation |
| Dinmiyor gönlümün | There is no end to my heart's |
| Hicran hicran hicran yarası | Grief, grief, grief wound |
| Bitmiyor ayrılık | There is no end to separation |
| Dinmiyor gönlümün | There is no end to my heart's |
