Boşu Boşuna [English translation]

My God had given a life to me

For nothing, for nothing

The soul had entered my body

For nothing, for nothing

I was born for nothing, for nothing

Did Jesus remain for Mary?

What did Moses achieve with his staff?

Soloman became a Sultan

For nothing, for nothing

His sovereignty was for nothing

Water flows and reachs to sea

Sea evaporates and drops rise

They become rain in the sky

Their drops are for nothing, for nothing

It rains for nothing, for nothing

Once I have gone then I have come

I have searched and I have found myself

I have became Mahsuni Sherif

For nothing, for nothing

I live for nothing, for nothing
