Tamirci çırağı [English translation]

My heart caught fire, it burns, yes, it keeps burning

Hope is the bread of my heart, it hopes, yes, it keeps hoping

Her white chubby hands, polished fingernails

Where should he hide these calloused palms of his hand

Her car was brought into our garage yesterday for service

I was struck as soon as i saw her and began loving

A long skirt covering her legs, wavy hair

The boss called out to me at a distance, "Son, bring the tools"

I'd read something like this in a novel

It was an expensive book with a glossy hard cover

Whatever or however happened, a young girl fell in love

With an apprentice mechanic in a similar situation

I said to the boss "let me not wear overalls today"

I combed my hair in my hazy mirror

She'd come back today to take her car

Maybe to make the dream in that novel true

Time stopped, the earth stopped as she entered the door

I just stood staring without taking my eyes off from her

I opened the door of the car so that she gets on

Her crescent eyebrows were raised and asked "Who's this bum?"

She drove away with her car i was covered in her exhaust fumes

Teardrops like buds in my eyes, i stood upright slowly

The boss came, slapped my back, and said "forget the novels"

"You're a worker, stay as a worker," he said, "wear your overalls"
