Benim Ömrüm [English translation]

In the middle of nowhere, through a blizzard

Beloved, the trouble I went through with you

In those straights the world didn't make me laugh

My life became a lie

I wrote a ballad in your name

I was sincerely bored with my love

I wandered in strange, foreign lands

My life became a lie

Oh my life! Oh my hapless life

Oh my lonely life! My life has become a disaster

The choices I have made, the things I have seen

I piled trouble on top of trouble

Stubbornly I brought myself to grief

My life became a lie

Don't think they I forgot you

I hung roses to dry

I took up residence in a foreign land

My life became a lie
