Çocukken Sahip Olduğum Kırmızı Rugan Ayakkabılar [English translation]

I would like to say such things, to tell them

Such that every word of it sucks you in and hides you away in somewhere deep

I would like to show such things, to depict them

I would like to be the wind so I could blow chilly air around you

This is a dream, this is a prayer

Whatever you say, it doesn't matter

I tried flying against the wind,

I looked for you, I looked for you, my eyes closed

As if I had been playing tag blindfolded

With the help of my hands, with my senses

The red, patent leather shoes I had when I was a kid

They were very cute, just like you but

They hurt me

They caused me pain

I would like to come across such a drug that it frees me from

The fear of love you brought me, but my wound is so deep

(I would like to) cut everything away as if I was cutting with a knife

If you dare to, try and cut me, my feelings, my heart off

This is a dream, this is a prayer

Whatever you say, it doesn't matter

I tried flying against the wind,

I looked for you, I looked for you, my eyes closed

As if I had been playing tag blindfolded

With the help of my hands, with my senses

The red, patent leather shoes I had when I was a kid

They were very cute, just like you but

They hurt me

They caused me pain
