Translation of the song Her Yer Karanlık (Makber) artist Nesrin Sipahi

Turkish

Her Yer Karanlık (Makber)

English translation

It's All Dark (Macabre)

Her yer karanlık pür-nûr o mevkî

It's all dark, just her place is fully bright

Mağrip mi, yoksa makber mi yâ Râb?

Is it where the Sun sets, or is it her grave, my God?

Yâ habgâh-ı dilber mi yâ Râb

Or is it where the beauty sleeps, my God?

Rüya değil bu, ayniyle vâkî

It's not a dream, it's the reality

Kabri çiçekten bir türbe olmuş

Her grave turned into a shrine which made from flowers

Dönmüş o türbe bir haclegâhe

And then her shrine turned into a bridal chamber

Bir haclegâhe dönmüşse türben

If your shrine turned into a bridal chamber

Aç koynunu aç, maşukânım ben

Open your arms, I'm your lover
