Şimdi [English translation]
I'm leaving now
Like a leaf, broken loose from a branch
I'm giving up now
Like a tree, rooted up from earth
I'm quiet now
Quiet like a dumb
I'm falling down now
Like a soldier executed by gunfire
Turn off the lights, draw the curtains now
Let the onlookers go away, let the witnesses of this murder go away
Tuck us in blankets, kiss our forheads now
Make us sleep, let's sleep and forget the loneliness
Now cross us out, erase our names
Bury us, bury love bury all that's left incomplete
Silence the songs now, silence the prayers
Let us forget, forget all made-up stories
Now squint your eyes, move your hands away
Shoot us, shoot love, shoot all that's left from us
Now burn my words, burn poets
Scatter my ashes into the rains and winds
And even now, spread the loneliness on my wrists
Pierce us, drill us
Make all the lies bleed
Now gather all pains and set them on us
Let them tear apart, tear apart all that's left of love
