Translation of the song Hâkim artist Kurban

Turkish

Hâkim

English translation

Judge

Tokmak iner, ses kesilir

Knob drops, sound's cut

Çok konuşan baş ezilir

Head, talking much, gets crushed

Kara cübbe kalem kırar

Black robe breaks pen

Sallanan ip boyna doyar

Swinging rope has enough of neck

Aklında bin kurt dolaşır

Thousand of wolves in your mind

Kendine bile sataşır

Annoy's even itself

Elbet koyun kucağa düşer

Eventually sheep falls on the lap

Kurt dişine kan yaraşır

Blood is worthy for Wolf tooth

İnsin tokmak, bitsin rüya

Let the knob drop, Let the dream over

At bir tekme, dönsün dünya

Throw a kick, Let the world turn around

Zemin toprak, gezer koyun

Ground is soil, Travels the sheep

Dünya sofrasıdır kurdun

World is the dinner table for wolf

Bazı koyun söz dinlemez

Some sheep doesn't listen

Her kaleme düşer bir boyun

Each pen gets a neck

Koyun elbet kurttan korkar

Of course scares of wolf

Amma korkan arı sokar

But a bee that is scared stings

Kurt sendeler, maske düşer

Wolf dodders, Mask falls

Altından da çoban çıkar

Shepherd comes out of the mask

Gönlün geniş, aklın darsa

If your heart is big, mind is small

Oturursun hep kazığa

You get to sit on stake always

Ağanın sofrası zengin

The table of the agha is rich

Sen de yetin hep azıyla

And you confine yourself with less

İnsin tokmak, bitsin rüya

Let the knob drop, Let the dream over

At bir tekme, dönsün dünya

Throw a kick, Let the world turn around

İnsin tokmak, bitsin rüya

Let the knob drop, Let the dream over

At bir tekme, dönsün dünya

Throw a kick, Let the world turn around

Çoban düşer korku biter

Shepherd falls, fear is over

Aklı olsa bir çit çeker

If he had a mind he would draw a fence

Çobanınki maske amma

Shepherds' is a mask but

Kurtlar hep aramızda gezer

Wolves are always around us
