Translation of the song Gel Canım artist İbrahim Tatlıses

Şafak söktü yoksun hala

The dawn (daybreak) ended but you are not here yet.

Ağlarım ben yana yana

I weep and moan.

Feryadım vardı dağlara

I have a cry to shout over these mountains,

Bitmez tükenmez yollara

over endless roads,

Uçuşan o martılara

flying seagulls,

Gözü yaşlı analara

weeping mothers

O dağlara o taşlara hey

those mountains and rocks

Dayanamam inananam

I can not endure and believe,

O sevdiğim sen olaman

that you are whom I loved her.

Yüreğime hançer vurdun

You stabbed my heart whit a dagger

Bunu yapan sen olaman hey hey

(I can not believe) that you did so

Gel canım cananım

Com my life and sweetheart

Elleri kınalım gözleri sürmelim

with hennaed hands

Bu bedenim sana bu yüreğim sana

with purled eyes

Kara kaşlarına kurban hey hey

This body is for you. This heart is for you

Esti rüzgar kor götürdü

The wind blew and took the ember,

Kalbe geldi küle döndü

and brought it to my heart and it burnt and turned into ash.

Yine bana hasret düştü

Yearning is my lot again

Neyleyim ben sensiz gülü

What shall I do on the day without you (I don’t want that day).

Çıktım dağlara dağlara

I climbed over the mountains,

Yürüdüğün yollara

the rods that you have walked

Bastığın o topraklara hey

the soil which you have walked
