Translation of the song Sarı Gelin artist Selda Bağcan

Erzurum çarşı pazar leylim aman

Erzurum down-town bazaar, oh my love, mercy

İçinde bir kız gezer oy nenen ölsün

A girl wanders in it, oh may your grandma die

Sarı gelin aman

Blonde bride, mercy

Elinde divit kalem leylim aman

In her hand an inkwell pen, oh my love, mercy

Dertlere derman yazar oy nenen

She writes cure for troubles, may your grandma die

Ölsün sarı gelin

Blonde bride

Erzurumda bir kuş var leylim aman

There is a bird in Erzurum, oh my love mercy

Kanadında gümüş var oy nenen ölsün sarı gelin

It has silver in its wing, oh may your grandma die, blonde bride

Yarim gitti gelmedi leylim aman

My lover has gone and hasn't returned back, oh my love, mercy

Elbet bunda bir iş var oy nenen ölsün sarı gelin

Sure, something fishy is going around this, may your grandma die blonde bride
