Bir Çocuk Sevdim

I saw a child in the distance
His eyes were sad, even scared
Yet for a moment, the child smiled
Warm, simple, but a bit unsure

I loved a child in the distance
I thought his longing was just like mine
But with a glance, he stripped me bare
Only with his feelings, he left me exposed

I've never seen a heart like this, such love
Now the child is growing day by day
He’s shedding all his sorrows one by one
Clinging to a hidden hope, a bit resentful

I've never seen a heart like this, such love
Now the child is growing day by day
He’s shedding all his sorrows one by one
Clinging to a hidden hope, a bit resentful

I saw a child in the distance
A bit of a child, a bit of a man, a bit of nothing
In his hands, bundles of old time
He chose a new path, never tried before

I loved a child in the distance
One hand held tomorrow, the other held yesterday
Seemed a bit sad about aging too soon
He looked at the state of the world and just laughed

I've never seen a heart like this, such love
Now the child is growing day by day
He’s shedding all his sorrows one by one
Clinging to a hidden hope, a bit resentful

I've never seen a heart like this, such love
Now the child is growing day by day
He’s shedding all his sorrows one by one
Clinging to a hidden hope, a bit resentful

I've never seen a heart like this, such love
Now the child is growing day by day
He’s shedding all his sorrows one by one
Clinging to a hidden hope, and he’s sulking.
