İnanmadın
Ahmet Selçuk İlkan
You Didn't Believe
To the deserts of your heart
I became a river, you didn't believe
To the strands of your hair
I became a captive, you didn't believe
I, who never bows down
I, who never listens to crazy words
For you, how many times
I shed tears, you didn't believe
You didn't believe, what can I do?
My share is the emptiness without you
Are you a god that I should worship?
I loved you, you didn't believe
As the mountains kneel before me
Now the stones weep for me
In my life, only to you
I fell defeated, you didn't believe
You are the sole victor of my fight
You are the only owner of my heart
Like a submissive child to you
I surrendered, you didn't believe
You crushed my pride
You disregarded my honor
I embraced my hope
I ran to you, you didn't believe.
I placed a ban on my heart
What did it matter, oh, in my hands?
To be tied down, what a word
I died for you, you didn't believe.
Give me back my unsoiled, smiling eyes.
Give me back my bright days that haven't darkened.
Give me back the endless great loves.
Give everything back...
