Menekşemin şan solosu
Menekşem o gece kaçınca bana
Bayramlaştık gerdek vakti, şakıdık
Sehere kadar sürdü cümbüş sefa:
“Anne, baba, Allah'a ısmarladık!"
Mehtaba çıkıp ay gibi parladık
Şad olduk guş gibi, neydi o sefa!
Ergenlik çağı geçince - ağladık:
“Allah'a ısmarladık, anne, baba!"
Nikâh kıydık, gelin-güvey de olduk
Hoş-beş ettik tabi, çünkü mutluyduk:
"Bugün aileyiz, aile" dedik!
Menekşem gelince bana o gece
Peynir ekmek gibi keyfiyet yedik:
"Yad et Oruç ağa!"
"Selam saadet, memnuniyet ve eğlence!"

Aria Violet
When Violet came home one night,
I burned bluish-red until the twilight!
Oh! Time of my life! She sang to me:
"I said, bye-bye mommy! Bye-bye daddy!
I found happiness with Denny!"
When Violet came home that night,
At last, I knew my world was all right!
Oh! Family! Then, she sang to me:
"I said, bye-bye mommy! Bye-bye daddy!
I'll now belong to Denny!"
When Violet came home that night,
We were the stars shining so bright!
Oh! What night! Then, she sang to me:
"I said, bye-bye mommy! Bye-bye daddy!
I'll soon be married to Denny! "
When Violet came home that night,
We knew they were wrong and we were right!
Oh! My poor heart! Then she sang to me:
"I said, bye-bye mommy! Bye-bye daddy!
Wish us well with Denny!"
