Translation of the song Meydan Sizindir artist Selda Bağcan
Meydan Sizindir
Challenge is yours
Soyulmadık bir derimiz kalmıştı
There was just our skin that isn't stolen(1),
Soyun babo soyun, meydan sizindir
Steal babo(2) steal, the challenge is yours.
Hiçbir canlı kardeşine kıyamaz
No living being can massacre his sibling,
Kıyın babo kıyın, meydan sizindir
Massacre babo massacre, the challenge is yours.
Bugün sizin ama yarın bizimdir
Today is yours but tomorrow is ours.
Dünya bizimdir, evren bizimdir
The world is ours, the universe is ours.
Dostluk bizimdir, kardeşlik bizimdir
Friendship is ours, brotherhood is ours.
Toprağa karışmış fakirin teri
The poor's sweat mixed with soil,
Ağlamak bilir mi beylerin biri
Does one of the masters know crying?
Size beyefendi, bize serseri
You as gentleman, us as rogue,
Deyin bab, deyin, meydan sizindir
Call babo call, the challenge is yours.
Bugün sizin ama yarın bizimdir
Today is yours but tomorrow is ours.
Dünya bizimdir, evren bizimdir
The world is ours, the universe is ours.
Dostluk bizimdir, kardeşlik bizimdir
Friendship is ours, brotherhood is ours.
Kıyas edilir mi çul ile halı
Can it be compared rug(3) with carpet?
Kimler yaptı bize böyle bir yolu
Who made such a way for us.
Yemekle biter mi milletin malı
Does people's asset run out by eating?(4)
Yeyin babo yeyin, meydan sizindir
Eat babo eat, the challenge is yours.
Bugün sizin ama yarın bizimdir
Today is yours but tomorrow is ours.
Dünya bizimdir, evren bizimdir
The world is ours, the universe is ours.
Dostluk bizimdir, kardeşlik bizimdir.
Friendship is ours, brotherhood is ours.
