Sevdiğim [English translation]

Separations are hard, longing exhausts me [1].

Everything comes to an end [2], my beloved.

Time no longer goes. My one who is [so often]

on the tip of my tongue, oh God [3],

Is taking me away from myself, my beloved.

It’s like I blazed myself [4] during a forest fire.

It’s like I’m a gulf at a sharp cliff edge [5].

No end to roads, suffering [6] has no color.

And for me there’s no remedy [7], my beloved.

I abandoned myself – perhaps, I’ve exhausted myself

a long time ago [8] –

In a place where we can’t return to, my beloved.
