Mihriban [English translation]

I hooked my heart up to you

And it doesn't get untangled, Mihriban1

When they say "lover", my pen falls from my hands,

I can't see and my mind gets confused

You left me in the ground of a dead well with broken stairs

The chains pulled my courage down every time I jumped

You turned your eyes away from me every morning when I woke up overwhelmed

Don't come back if you have a little bit of conscience, don't come back

Don't find death harder than divorcing

It can't be felt when it's not seen Mihriban, dear Mihriban

First coyness, then promise, and then cheating

The one who's loved gets the lover talked about

No matter if decades, centuries have past

The old rules don't get out of order, Mihriban

I'm used to it now, the pain feels like giving pleasure to me

I'm used to the lonely trips I've gone to, like a passenger

I hear they have been telling my victory out of defeat everywhere

Don't come back if you have a little bit of conscience, don't come back

Don't find death harder than divorcing

It can't be felt when it's not seen Mihriban, dear Mihriban

All the objects have an end but, they have it but

No borders can be drawn to love Mihriban, dear Mihriban
