KISKANÇ
Sakın bir söz söyleme…Yüzüme bakma sakın!
Sesini duyan olur,sana göz koyan olur.
Düşmanımdır seni kim bulursa cana yakın,
Anan bile okşarsa benim bağrım kan olur…
Dilerim Tanrı’dan ki, sana açık kucaklar
Bir daha kapanmadan kara toprakla dolsun,
Kan tükürsün adını candan anan dudaklar,
Sana benim gözümle bakan gözler kör olsun!
ENVIOUS
Never speak a word… Never look at me! Someone will hear your voice, someone will covet you. Anyone who finds you friendly is my enemy, Even if your own mother caresses you, it wounds my heart…
I pray to God that open arms await you, May they be filled with dark earth without ever closing, May your name be cursed by your mother’s sincere lips, May the eyes that gaze upon you through my own eyes go blind!
JEALOUS
Don’t say a word…Don’t look at my face!
Someone who hears your voice, someone who looks at you.
My enemy is friendly to whoever finds you,
If even your mother caresses, my bosom will become blood…
I hope from God that he gives you open embraces
Let it be filled with black earth before it closes again,
Let the blood spit the lips that cordially mention your name, May the eyes that look at you with my eyes be blind!
