Nihal
Nihal’in tek isteği
Sevgiydi her dileği
Sizdeyse hep arzusu
Sizdeydi her niyeti
Şöyleydi bir türküsü:
“Ak koyunun kuzusu
“Al gelinin arzusu
“Delse sende nikahı
“Kim olacak yavrusu?
“Göster Mevlam bana yol
“Kıyamete hakim ol
“Talihsize zahmet çok
“Şen olasın hep Şen ol”
Nihal’in tek serveti
Vasi’ye her yemini
Maksadı ve onuru
Vicdandı hep kefili

JOY
Joy's one and only wish
Was like her every wish,
it was love
But caged like a dove
She had a strong desire
All her feelings were on fire
One of her songs went like this:
“O lamb of the white sheep
“Redheaded bride's in love, weep
"If it's true,
"That she is not married to you
“Whose baby will she carry?
“God, open the skies for me
“I'll conquer the apocalypse
"I'll discover new fellowships
“Lighten my burden, the unlocky one
“Warm and cheerful,
"Cheerful I'll be from now on”
Joy's one and only wealth
Was a sad commonwealth
For she housed a real scorpion
In an oath made to her guardian
Her life's purpose and her honor
Always her guarantor
Was her bond to be cautious
In her faith,
compassion and conscience
