Hemşerim [English translation]

I dwelt in a foreign place far from my homeland

It became like a prison to me in the nights

Longing enveloped my body

My beloved countryman

Oh my countryman; what a pity, my countryman

I missed my hometown

My mother and father in one way

[And in another way entirely] I missed my beloved

I could not go when my mother was ill

I did not appreciate her value

I could not see her at her last breath

I burned with bitter regret, my countryman
