lyrics by Mehmet Ali Sanlıkol

HATAM NE?
Yalnızlıktan sıkıldım derken aynaya
Pek biçimsiz aksetmiş şeklim oraya
Derdim derman bilmez Tanrım Senden olmaya
Çare diler gönlüm Senden, hatam af ola

Bana biraz yardım eyle gayrı dayanmam
Sevdiğim dön bana daha sabretmem
Hatam ne söylesen rahat edecem

Gökte güneş geldin bana son gün olsa da
Yollar bitmek bilmedi bir kez olsa da
Pek aldattı güzel yüzün ve o gülüşün
Yalanmış meğer hepsi buna üzüldüm

Sebep ne anlasam gayrı sıkılmam?
Sevdiğim dön...

WHERE DID I GO WRONG?
As I said to the mirror, 'I’m tired of being alone'
My ugly reflection stared back at me
There is no cure for my sorrow. Is it because of you, God?
My soul begs for Your help. Forgive my failure.

Help me out a bit here, as I can’t take this anymore.
My love, return to me, I've lost all patience
Where did I go wrong? Tell me and I'll be relieved.

You came on a sunny day even if it was the last day.
Even if it was just that one time we walked for hours,
Your beautiful face and smile fooled me
Too bad, turns out it was all a lie

Had I known why, I wouldn’t be upset
My love...
