Seher vakti [English translation]

I took the road in the morning,it was dawning

My mother asked me 'where are you going my son?'

I said 'don't ask too much,mother,i am heartsick,enough,don't ask'

I took the road in the morning,it was dawning.

I've walked for days,i haven't stopped

I stopped in the fountainheads

Mountains,stones were passable

Green fields enrolled their carpets in front of me

I took the road in the morning,it was dawning

I've complained about my troubles to the wolves,to the birds for years

I thought time passes and i can forget

Kerem was burning because of his troubles*

And Mecnun was dying because of his troubles**

And i have taken the road because of my trouble.

They ask 'Barış,what are you doing there? How is being away from home,is not it hard?'

Here,i am baring my heart,please don't ask,for God's sake

My trouble made me to take the road.
