Olsun [English translation]

We are no longer innocent

Nor free from lies

Let it go

You take the pictures

The seasons are mine anyway

Just let it go.

We share these poems

Friends and cities

Whatever happens, happens

We are no longer free

Nor are our lives

Just let it go.

I’ll leave. You can have Istanbul.

I’ll leave. You can have Istanbul.

I’ll take my chances. My head is like a crazy river.

I’ll erase my tears. The city will erase my name.

I’ll cut my hair. I’ll make myself feel better.

A rose will wither. If it withers, I’ll forget about it.

I’ll write a letter that’s deeper than your absence

I’ll buy a cat. And you’ll call your mother.

Your hands on my mind. Your passion will stay on my heart.

Always sadness. Always suffering. Just tell me to let it go.
