Öyle Bir Yerdeyim Ki [English translation]

Being in such a place

There is neither carnation nor frog

One of my sides is blue moss

It shudders in the waters.

Oh comrade, comrade

My good comrade!

What a worse life line is it?

What a maddening system this is?

It is autumn on one side,

on the other a flourishing spring.

Being in such a place,

One of my sides is yelling and screaming

Being in such a place

My mum goes out crying oh god, oh god!

My daughter has ended up in the street.

My offspring has ended up in the street.
