Saka Kuşu
Yelkeni açmışsın inançlı kaptan
Korkundan çiğnemiş sakakuş urgan
Dalgalı denize attığın tahmin
Çarpışır vahşeti ilahi kalbin
Tükenmez takatın bitince ödün
Yüklenir güvenin açılır önün
Sendeki sevgiye olamaz sahip
Talihe sabırsız ömrüne rakip
Çatıda kasabın havasın çeker
Tepişir tepişir damlardan düşer

GOLDFINCH
You have set the sail, faithful captain.
The goldfinch chewed the rope out of fear
A guess you threw into the wavy sea
As your divine heart clashed with brutality
Give up when your inexhaustible strength runs out
You'll load up on trust; as to the fore,
it will just as soon open up widely before you
No one else can own the kind of love you have in you
Its impatient to fortune and a rival to your life
The butcher on the roof dances with flair
Kicks, scuffles and tussles in thin air
But sometimes, he does fall down right down the stairs!
