Güneş - Zeus'a

Gözyaşları kalbimi dolduruyor,
Usul usul yağan yağmur gibi,
Bu duygu nedir söyle bana!

Çal ey saat, gel ey gece;
Günler gelir ve geçer,
Ben yine olduğum yerdeyim.

Yaşarım ve ölürüm; alevlenirim ve boğulurum;
Hayat benim için çok kolay ve çok ağır.
Ne yapacağımı bilmediğim günlerde, güneş gibi doğuyorsun.

Sevinçle karışık; büyük sıkıntılarım var,
Güneş parlıyor,
Ve seni sevinçle karşılıyorum.

Rüzgarda yelkenler var,
Dalgalar var, güneş var.
Güneş ayna aynadır, güneş pul puldur,
Güneş saçlarınla oynar.

Kırlangıç - Lord Neberius'a

Kırlangıçlar gördüm gölün kıyısında,
Soğuk düşünce vakit, göçtüler uzağıma
Şimdi bir başka ufukta erken doğar güneş,
Yazımı yeşerten ışık düşer gri duvarlarıma,
Beton susar, yeşilim konuşur kırağa.

Seni düşündüm; nergisler soldu içimde,
Deniz çekildi, dalgalar vurdu göğsüme.
Hayalin bir akşam indi gözlerime,
Göğe baktım uzun uzun, aynı maviye
Belki sen de bakarsın diye.

Ölülerin sessizliğinde sürdüm adını gönlüme,
Sende aynı toprağa basarsın diye.
Rüzgar adını fısıldadı karanlıkta,
Ben seni gökten, topraktan, sudan
Bir ömür sakladım yarınlara.

Yarınlar hayalinin içinde erirken,
Denizleri aşan kırlangıçlar kondu dallarıma.
Her kanat çırpışı bir hatıra bıraktı,
Tünek kalbimde çoğaldın,
Sessizliğin büyüdü zamanla.

Coşkun bir dere gibi aktı içim,
Sonbaharım ürpertti sarı yaprakları.
Camda dağıldı yağmur damlalarım
Bir köşe hanın loş akşamında
Adın yazıldı buğulu camlarıma.

Şimdi bir başka ufukta erken doğar güneş,
Işık içime dolup geceleri unutturur.
Sevinci serer avuçlarıma sabah rüzgarı,
Neşe usulca yerleşir kalbimin kıyısına,
Gülüşüm günle birlikte çoğalır,
Kırlangıçlar gördüm gölün kıyısında,

İlmek

Alevler eritirken o sarâyı,
Çatıldı sânedeki sağlam ilmek.

Nefes aldıkça çöken taş duvarı,
Zühûr eylerdi gözüyle hep mülhem.

Avazın ok gibi çatlakta kaldı,
Kızıl bir hât olup her dem.

Rüzgârın taşıdığı nem gibi şimdi,
İlâh nefsi dolaşır onda hemdem.

Gölge-i mihrinde kaldım ey misâfir,
Her gelişinle kapım olur pürgam.

Duvarlarım nefes alıp yine çöker,
Harâb olur gelişinle her merhem.

Meram terasında nâzenînler,
Çardakta erler idi hep muhtem.

Zamanın taşlara yazdığı nakşın,
Silinmez artık ucunda mihrem.

Kanat çırparken, inip kapımdan içeri
Soruyor; “Kapılarıma nar-ı aşkı vuran kim? "

I will die

One day you will wake up suddenly from your bed,
You will go out to the window, the sun may shine in,
The wind will play with your hair,
You will remember an old poem,
Without knowing who wrote it.

One day you will walk down a path for no reason,
The wind will blow on your face, you will smell the sweet scent of cherries,
You will stand there under the trees,
You will remember a young man, a little sad,
Without knowing who he is.

I won’t be able to sleep,
You will leave,
The colors will fade—what will I see?
Gray clouds?
They will settle on my shoulders like a night,
Don’t read!

I will die,
They will shoot me in the back,
You will see the blood on the stone, the full moon in the sky,
You won’t know, you won’t remember my name,
Don’t know!
It wasn’t me who died.

Aşk-ı Cihan

Gül görse rûy-i yârini, hicabından kızarır,
Terk eyler ol libâsını, solup darılır.

Portakalın rayihası silinir zıkrınla,
Seninle cümle âlemde koku cânân sanılır.

Saçınla kıyas eden güneş, utancından kaçar,
Der: “Ben çekilsem ey peri, ziyanın kâfî olur.”

Ziyâ-i lâhûtîyle nûra gark olur cihân,
Zulmet kalır mı her yerde cemâlin var olur.

Gözlerine baksa bir martı, uçmaz gökden denize,
Artık süzülmez gökdeniz, uçuşta can verilir.

Seni düşünen dimağ, aklını serzâr eder,
Aşkınla mahv olur şuur, cihândan el çekilir.

Rüzgâr işitse sadânı, unutur bâd-ı zemistân,
Fırtınası diner hemen, mecnûn gibi sessiz olur.

Seven gönül, cefâyı cânân bilir,
Gamınla şâd olur, şikâyet etmez olur.

Asker görse tebessümün, bırakır kılınç ü siper,
Unutur harb-u, sükûn ile dolur.

Mediterranean

I believe such a lie!
A dead end like drowning,
Neither crying nor shouting,
So warm and so cold!
So quiet, so cold-blooded.

I know such a truth!
His shoulders are close to the sky,
His hands wrapp around the clouds,
Clouds by his voice, mountains by his scent;
A sun rises where your gaze passes.

I'll wake up to such a morning!
It will be a day; from your hair!
A day from your words!
I love!
On a spring evening
By the seashore...
The Mediterranean Sea...
The light from your eyes...

Crow's Dream

You are an old love poem,
Hence these descriptions, hence these rhymes,
You are beautiful, you can laugh for without reason.

You are a November morning,
Where the winds blow and the trees shed their leaves,
You are beautiful, you can live without reason.

You're an autumn dream,
Beautiful, scary,
No one else is afraid,
Nor the son for his father, nor Apollo for his Daphne,
As much as losing you scares me.

You are beautiful, you can love for without reason.

-Satan's Crow

Daylight

You are a winter house where the fire burns while it snows outside.
Smoky, with stone stairs, gray smoke.
It doesn't matter if it's stone, I'll warm myself with you.
The street lamp would ignite the darkness, the nights would end like rain, the trees would sway.
The lost traveler always wandered.
Every morning I would look at you and watch from afar,
Like sunlight in the pouring rain.
A ship used to pass through this harbor, port, starboard.
In the dark dome of the sky, the stars would look at you, ashamed of shining as if they were looking at a lover,
Don't look at the cold outside, I'll warm my myself with you.
I loved you as if I were dying.
I would love you even if I were dying.

Flower

You look like flowers blooming in the wilderness,
Your leaves protect me from the rain that falls on me.
Before you, tears filled the rivers,
Now they're just memories.
The Atlantic is far away, even though heaven is close to me,
The oceans are like your eyes.
Even if spring comes, it doesn't bring as much warmth to the house as your voice,
Your eyes look like endless oceans.
I look at the ocean like I'm coming out of a fire.
You look like flowers blooming in the wilderness.
I'm running away from the rain, father.

Narcissus

My heart doesn't squeeze when I see you like it used to,
I never think of you anymore,
I don't shed a tear when I see you,
I don't write poems to you anymore,
I don't want to know what you're doing anymore,
I don't look at you and wander away,
I don't think about what happened,
I know I'm better now,
I know I don't love you anymore.

But I also know that all these things are lies.

Father

I went to sleep and woke up, saying "Father".
I was a child, but I grew old very early.
All my pain starts with "father" and ends with "father".

Let the ocean and the sky,
Let me keep crying.
Let me continue to meet the sun where it rises.

I don't want to understand you one day, I want to live you every day.
And if one day my body blends into the soil of my homeland,
I want to be remembered for my poems, not for my experiences.

A thousand times the worse, to want thy light. -Shakespeare

Eyes

I saw a kind man in your eyes,
I saw in your eyes someone trying to fit in,
In your eyes I saw someone who became human again,
I saw in your eyes someone who thinks he knows how to live but is very ignorant.

We are creatures of ambition,
We see in each other a harsh judge, and an enemy,
But I saw eternity in you.


I won't ask you not to go,
But don't you know, V...

“Doubt thou the stars are fire; Doubt that the sun doth move; Doubt truth to be a liar; But never doubt I love.” -Shakespeare

I Will Lose

Time passes so fast,
As if I committed myself yesterday.
As if I loved you yesterday.

I call you so close, you don't hear me.
I wave from afar for you to see me, you don't look.
I fight for your smile, you don't smile.
I die for you to see me, you don't see me.

Don't test me without you, because I will lose!

 Love

Sometimes love is a tear, always pouring it into your soul, even when tears come from your eyes.

Sometimes to love is to be patient, to be patient no matter how much trouble life throws at you.

Sometimes it is difficult to love, to be worthy of love.

Sometimes to love is to miss, to miss even if you don't know or can't see.

Sometimes love is understanding the other half of your soul.

Sometimes love is to live, to carry someone in your heart even when they are far away.
