Kara Toprak [English translation]

I Hugged alot thougt friends

My loyal friend is black earth

Travelled for nothing got tired

My loyal friend is black earth

I loved lots of beatifuls

Didn't see fidelity didn't get benefit

Got all my needs from earth

My loyal friend is black earth

Gave sheep gave lamp gave milk

Gave food gave bread gave meat

When didn't dig with digging gave less

My loyal friend is black earth

Brought my generation up to this level since Adam

Made me eat different fruits

Carried me on its head everyday

Mybloyal friend is black earth

I dig its center with digging with grubber

Riped its face with nails with hands

Again welcommed me with rose

My loyal friend is black earth

While dragoon was smiling to me

There no lie about this everyone has seen

I gave one seed gave me four watermelons

My loyal friend is black earth

If I look at air I will get air

If I look at earth I get pray

If I leave earth where to stay

My loyal friend is black earth

Is you have a wish ask to god

Don't go far from wrath to get (your wish)

Generosity has been given to earth from god

My loyal friend is black earth

If you search for truth is a clear point

God is close to servant servant close to god

God's secret treasure is in earth

My loyal friend is black earth

Earth hides all the defects of us

Pomade to heal my sore

Opened arms waiting for me

My loyal friend is black earth

Who ever find out this secret

Will leave immortal work(art)

A day will come will hug to Veysel to it's chest

My loyal friend is black earth
