Translation of the song Affet artist Sezen Aksu

Turkish

Affet

English translation

Forgive

Senden daha öncesi yok ki

There is nothing before you

Çoktan kaldırdım çatıya

I have already removed (you)

Böyle bir saflık yok ki

There is no such purity

Bakakaldım

But I was (still) looking

Kimlerdensin nerelerdensin

Who are you? Where are you from?

Değmedi mi kir pas ellerine

Didn’t dirt touch your hands?

Hayret

Amazed

Aldım kör bıçağı elime

I took the blunt knife in my hand

Kanata kanata suçumu kazıyorum

I'm stabbing my faults into my wings

Sabret, sabret

Be patient, be patient

Gelen vurdu, giden vurdu, ben de vurdum

One hit (at me), another hit (at me), I also hit back

Vururken rastlayınca kendime durdum

While hitting it, I stopped when I ran into him

Büküldü gökyüzü, ayna oldu zaman

The sky changed, it became a mirror then

Ben o gün ilk defa şeffaf bir şey gördüm

(And) I saw something pure for the first time that day
