Beni Vur [English translation]

I'm in a thin ambush,

there is vipers on my way.

I'm in a weird evening.

A rifle watches my back.

I can't reach to your street, I'm in dire straits.

I can't look at your innocent eyes, I'm on the run.

But, tonight I was going to tell you

a secret of mine with heart in my hands.

If that bullet hadn't perforated my insides,

I was going to take you away.

Shoot me

but don't give me away to them.

Take my ashes and sprinkle them to far away places,

let our love splatter to mountains

but stop, don't you cry.

Shoot me

but don't give me away to them.

Take my ashes and sprinkle them to far away places,

let our story splatter to mountains

but stop, don't you cry.

I'm in a thin ambush.

Tonight tastes like poison.

I'm at the end of a road,

by running out of myself silently.

Ah, I can't reach out to your hands, I've fallen, I'm on the ground.

I can't reach those innocent dreams, I've been dying.

But, tonight I was going to tell you

a secret of mine with heart in my hands.

If that bullet hadn't perforated my insides,

I was going to take you away.

Shoot me

but don't give me away to them.

Take my ashes and sprinkle them to far away places,

let our love splatter to mountains

but stop, don't you cry.

Shoot me

but don't give me away to them.

Take my ashes and sprinkle them to far away places,

let our story splatter to mountains

but stop, don't you cry.
