Ateşe Yakın [English translation]

That night when I lit a candle, I thought of you

I remembered every moment when I got rid of fear

Since you passed, everything stayed the same, it's just that

I miss (you) so much, and like all heroes you've gone early

You were the last shimmer of light I had seen

You would always shine

That ivy you used to rest then withered away

You were always flying close to the fire

A boat and two paddles

A bright moon and a noble heart

A bit of rakı* and something to eat

Perhaps that's what life means

The day you passed,

I saw you saying farewell in my dream, by chance

I miss (you) so much, and like all heroes you've gone early

You were the last shimmer of light I had seen

You would always shine

That ivy you used to rest then withered away

You were always flying close to the fire
