Uzun İnce Bir Yoldayım [English translation]

I am on a long, thin road

I tread day and night

Not knowing what condition I am in

I tread day and night

The moment I came to this world

I walked at the same time

In an inn with two doors

I tread day and night

Even in my sleep I walk

Searching for a reason to stay

I always see those who have passed

I tread day and night

Been on this road for forty-nine years

Through plains, mountains, deserts

I have fallen to the hands of homesickness

Treading day and night

When one thinks deeply

It seems distant

A road lasting but a moment

I tread day and night

Veysel gawks at this situation

Crying and laughing at times

To reach the journey's end

I tread day and night
