I am grateful to ALİ YILDIRIM who made all 'Karma' lyrics translations you can find here.
This page appeared here only owing to his talent . I translated only 'Kuzu Kuzu' song. I hope you liked all english lyrics.
LOVE (AŞK)
For years my face did not smile
The sun did not shine here.
I was always the season of fall,
I couldn't cope
I couldn't do without love.
I hoped for help from perishable wealth
Now I realise the falsity of worldly goods.
I couldn't cope alone
I couldn't do without love.
Hey!
But since I've seen you,
Since I've fallen into your fire
The sun rises upon into my days.
Hey!
Since I saw you
Since our eyes made love
The sun has risen in my dreams.
You are the rarest of all flowers
Of all the gardens of love I've ever roamed.
I have placed a seal on my heart since the first glance.
You're the one I need since the beginning of eternity.
OH (AY)
Oh!... If she only knew
What avowals I made for her love.
My colors have faded,
I've worn out because of her.
I wrote her name in the sky with a thousand stars.
She didn't need me, laughed at my invitation.
Despite this, no mountain was high enough,
I crossed the deserts and the seas to come to her.
But it was useless, she didn't care for my tears.
Oh!... Oh I'm distraight.
I've become a fool for her.
Oh!... Oh I'm forgotten.
Out in the cold, I'm bait for the birds
Oh! I burn at my attempts for you,
Oh! I burn.
But it's no use! There's no turning back.
Pity! All my years have flown by,
What would be the use if you returned now? Oh
There is no taste to me,
To some I'm crazy, insane
To some I'm a lost soul
My fate has my hands and eyes tied,
I am wretched in your hands
KUZU KUZU
Look! My arms and wings are broken
No, I couldnt hold on
Hard! To be without you is hard
I couldnt get used to
Hit this stupid head by the stone
Against the wall - to get sevap*
Then forgive me, come to me
Lean my head against your heart
I felt blue, wasted away without you
Here I came back just like you said before
How much times I wanted to bring myself to your knees
This time I burned my pride down and came to you
You can leave me if you want to
And you can kiss me
But look into my eyes and listen to me first
Trust me, I understood this feeling inside without you
I repented
Spread this hot pepper on my lips**
*sevap- good deed, opposite to 'commit a sin',
to be clean from sins
**to make hurt if smb said smth bad or wrond
FAR AWAY (UZAK)
From those who complain though their stomachs are full,
From those who become bored in the pursuit of pleasure,
From those who cry false tears for the public, keep away from me, far away!
Keep far away from me, far away!
From those offended by friendly remarks,
From those who freeze up from their own suspicions,
From those who seem friends to their enemies, keep away from me, far away!
Keep far away from me, far away...
From those who talk about their good deeds,
From those who find a pretext for their faults,
From those who seem friends to their enemies, keep away from me, far away!
Keep far away from me, far away...
From those who trick by their duplicity,
From those who compete with their sins,
From those whom their own reflections reject, keep away from me, far away!
Keep far away from me, far away...
I'M DONE FOR (YANDIM)
I missed you, I hit the roads,
I exposed my soul to your breeze.
As if it were a dream, an adventure
I broke down, words all in pieces,
I'm done for...I'm done for...
I'm done for...I'm done for...
Oh! How I'm done for
Lady, who has taught me to sing once more
Couldn't stop looking at you, I breathed your perfume too
The intoxication still remains
Your love within me.
What a lovely manner you carry,
What a beautiful name you have.
You scratched my desire, made it bleed.
I'm done for...I'm done for...
I'm done for...I'm done for...
Oh! How I'm done for
Dreams are the only places where I can see you now
They call me crazy.
Oh, this separation!
ASK HIM (ONA SOR)
Lover, don't ask for an oath, I won't swear
For oaths cannot be kept
A promise; if it's mine
Your promise is in safe hands
For without trust it cannot be kept,
Ask the rain, ask the desert, ask the mountains,
Just don't ask me
Ask Him, ask Him, ask Him, ask Him oh...
Lover, don't be hurt,
Why are your eyes downcast,
This punishment cannot be served,
Understand why my hands freeze,
Don't accuse, it's not befitting,
Ask the rain, ask the desert, ask the mountains,
Just don't ask me
Ask Him, ask Him, ask Him, ask Him oh...
Say my love, say it's passed,
Say let it end if you want to.
Don't ever say it's right, don't trust.
If I've wronged you then don't forgive
Don't say it's right, never forgive.
But if you're wrong, don't take one's due, stop
STONE (TAŞ)
Don't be fooled by my calm appearance
I'm like those storms that break without warning
So please, don't knowingly hurt me
I'll become a pawn in your game, I'll make you sorry...
I won't let this stand,
I'll ruin others for you.
Have you forgotten all those dreams we made together?
Eye to eye, knee to knee, those pleasant conversations
Many seasons I waited for you.
I pine away, I long for your summer
Oh my... oh my... oh my... oh my.
What did I do wrong, what was my mistake? Tell me!
No where can you go so fearlessly
I will search and find your trace,
You know I'm completely crazy.
I'll utterly destroy everything, I'll come after you
I'll be a stone on your roads,
You'll trip and fall. Oh! You'll get tired.
Those distances are forbidden to us,
Come give it up; or you'll go to waste.
DON'T GIVE ME (VERME)
Being born from my cause without choosing it
What pain I'm to endure without knowing it
I've collapsed with the weight you made me bear oh my
If you're going to give me anything, don't give me advice, I don't want it
Don't give me, don't give me, don't give me a piece of your mind,
If you're going to give me anything, give me peace of mind (x2)
Those who say that less means more
Why do they always take more than they give
Those persuaded by reason to upset love
Don't think that they walk around more happier than us
Don't give me, don't give me, don't give me a piece of your mind,
If you're going to give me anything, give me peace of mind (x2)
How can they who bear loss know profit
If you're to return to me, return now, I won't wait
How can a heart be banished from its settled place
Don't give me, don't give me, don't give me a piece of your mind,
If you're going to give me anything, give me peace of mind (x2)
