Aldırma Gönül [English translation]

Don't let your head be leant forward,

Don't mind it, my heart, don't mind it.

Don't let your tears be heard,

Don't mind it my heart, don't ever mind it.

Outwitted treacherous waves,

Come and crush my walls of marrow.

You're kept busy by these sorrowful sounds,

Don't mind it my heart, don't you mind it.

Bullets run out as you fire them,

The paths reach out to end as you walk them.

Confinement ends as you serve your time,

Don't mind it my heart, don't be mindful of it.

When your worries arise,

Send a reproach to God.

There are still days ahead to live,

Don't worry my heart, don't mind it.
