Kalbimde bir yaranin izi kaldi sevgilim
Askimizda ellerin gozu kaldi sevgilim
Gonlumun baharinda solmayan bir cicektin
Yalanci şu dunyada sen her seyden gercektin
Ayrılık, ayrılık günü bugün
Ayrılık, ayrılık günü bugün
Bugun ayrilik gunu, dokulsun gozyasimiz
Fani dunyaya dondu gercek olan askimiz
Sevilmeden sevilmez kuru agac egilmez
Kalp allah yapisidir, kalbe asla egilmez
Ayrılık, ayrılık günü bugün
Ayrılık, ayrılık günü bugün
Askimizda ellerin gozu kaldi sevgilim
Gonlumun baharinda solmayan bir cicektin

Slightly better than most of the Turkish pop (oh so boring stuff, if you've heard one song, you've heard all of them). But only slightly. do you have any recommendations? |
| triskele (The Dragons' Roost) | Posted: May 11, 2013 - 10:23 made me dance around like a turk! i own this cd and there are a couple of songs on it that i don't like, but mostly, i enjoy it! |

| plaid (Tech nexxus o' my house) | Posted: May 30, 2012 - 16:03 I have this CD, but I tend to skip this song. There's many better tracks on this CD, Bill! |
| missynessie | Posted: Mar 28, 2012 - 05:00 :D ur funny bill.. where did you get this ? tho I must admit you chose well among many other Turkish music :) funny to here this on RP :D ahahaha... thumbs up! |

| kaviksdad (Mission Control...) | Posted: Jul 19, 2011 - 08:45 Might be the most irritating song I've ever heard - right up there with Barney the dinosaur's theme song |
| Blasserman (Banning, CA - 553 Miles S-SE of Paradise) | Posted: Jul 19, 2011 - 08:44 Turkish Groove is a good description of this music. |
| lostflower | Posted: May 17, 2011 - 01:49 I've heard this song for the first time even I live in Turkey. This may be the first Turkish song I've ever heard in RP! I don't like these tunes like GOksel but it was really surprising to hear some Turkish stuff. thnx RP! |
| axe_victim (London, Ontario Canada) | Posted: Apr 15, 2011 - 12:11 Beautiful voice. I don't care about understanding the words. The voice is like an instrument. See David Blamires and Mark Ledford singing with Metheny. No words, just amazing voices. |

| fitzworld (The Big A) | Posted: Mar 31, 2010 - 14:20 It's okay but mostly indistinguishable from other songs of the genre. |

Seems innocuous enough to me. I second that. Also, the poster who thought he could hear what's going on in her mouth, when she gets to the end of a phrase, there's a weird guttural popping, like she's swallowing and hiccuping at the same time. The instruments are quite nice however. |
| That_SOB (The Dark Side of the Tune) | Posted: Jan 13, 2009 - 12:11 I am generally tollerant of music, and haven't written a thumbs down since joining this forum over a year ago, but this song needs to be taken to an alley and played to cats in heat.... my guess is it's getting air time in the US bacause it's banned in Turkey (and perhaps the whole Middle East, Europe, Russia , the Netherlands , Spain , France, England —-lets see what did I miss ? EVERYWHERE SAVE FOR HERE !!!!!! AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Idleneck MY ASS !!! |

I am a bellydance student and we normally dance to Egyptian or Turkish music and I love it but this song I do not care for. I think it's more the vocals than anything else. |
