Translation of the song Yaylalar artist İbrahim Tatlıses
Yaylalar
Highlands
Ay akşamdan ışığdır
Moon is shining from evening
Yaylalar yaylalar
highlands highlands
Yüküm şimşir kaşığıdır
sword of obligation is spoon (it means we don't approve of obligation)
Dilo dilo yaylalar
dilo dilo highlands (dil is an interjection means heart)
Komşu kızını zapteyle
neighbor, keep your daughter (keep means guard your daughter here)
Yaylalar yaylalar
highlands highlands
Bizim oğlan aşıktır
our son is a lover
Dilo dilo yaylalar
dilo dilo highlands
Ay akşamdan aş da gel
moon, overcome the evening !
Yaylalar yaylalar
highlands highlands
Dağları dolaş da gel
come around the mounts !
Dilo dilo yaylalar
dilo dilo highlands
Eğer anan koymazsa
if the mother doesn't consent
Yaylalar yaylalar
highlands highlands
Pencereden atla gel
take your bundle and run here
Dilo dilo yaylalar
dilo dilo highlands
Ayın önünde yıldız
in front of the moon, is star
Yaylalar yaylalar
highlands highlands
Nerden gelirsen baldız
sword of obligation is spoon
Dilo dilo yaylalar
dilo dilo highlands
Sen git de ablan gelsin
neighbor, keep your daughter
Yaylalar yaylalar
highlands highlands
Duramıram yalnız
our son is a lover
Dilo dilo yaylalar
dilo dilo highlands
