Gölgenle Bir Başıma

I was blind
You, an eternal Gordion knot
This grief I burried will kill me
Don’t ascribe it to another realm
It won’t quench, it will make a desert

Beasts, reeds, trees
All grow old, slow down in quiet
That’s the law, this world is a lie
Relative words, wars

Empty inn, reveries of dust
My soul deep down and out
What would I do on earth without him
Warblers and cypresses are all dead

Cry my friend take my shoulder
Tears in eyes, fire deep down
Watch the world over from the desert
Let the sun rise and erase your sorrows

Can I ever forget
Those peerless hyacinths
Dreams of ice, colors
Without you all are lacking and nonsense
Left all alone with your shadow
