Tell a wise person, or else keep silent, because the crowd will mock it right away. I praise what is truly alive, what longs to be burned to death. In the calm water of the love within your nights, where you were begotten, where you have begotten, a strange feeling comes over you, when you see the […]

Bana sor sevgili kâri’, sana ben söyleyeyim, Ne hüviyyette şu karşında duran eş’ârım: Bir yığın söz ki, samîmiyyeti ancak hüneri; Ne tasannu’ bilirim, çünkü, ne san’atkârım. Şi’r için “gözyaşı” derler; onu bilmem, yalnız, Aczimin giryesidir bence bütün âsârım! Ağlarım, ağlatamam; hissederim, söyleyemem; Dili yok kalbimin, ondan ne kadar bîzârım! Oku, şâyed sana bir hisli yürek […]

Trudging to the tops of toiling towers. Mountains have been made on the miles of my hands, For the words made clear and intent wither and wilt as they wash away atop showers, Of the decisions you have not yet decided and all its unmoving sands. ___ To the rocks ricocheted by my heart rampant […]

Gözlerinde hep gördüm. Sende bilirdin halimden varan sözüm. Inan uğruna bir taş çalmışım. Bağrıma basıp kandırmışım. ___ Masallarda hep bulmuşum seni. Gel görki mest etmiş ikimizi ne sensiz ne beni. Gözlerimi ona açıp senle kapatmışım. Mecralar yazmış çoktan maceraların içine bulmuşum. ___ Derler gelsen ne yarar, ne de bir ayar. Gereksiz sorular bırakmış bir halde […]

That which I held for you Held by many on a mornings dew Though by the suns of treason, those we reach are many few … And so now I ask for their lonely and tattered sake Droplets of pain soak away with the rain That of the taken by treacherous treason … For I […]

In a morning, times now long past We woke up early on promises for forever to last And a dove did fly A present for the sky ___ Now I never do ask Of that morning now long past For it was never for me to receive That I can sit and grieve ___ Nor […]

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?Thou art more lovely and more temperate:Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,And often is her gold complexion dimm’d;And every fair from fair sometime declines,By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm’d;But […]

Gelmiş zaman ile serilen her bir harman Her buluşunda parça parça bütünleşen ferman Aşk ile adım adım atan heyecan Sermest ola ümitsizlikten canı-canan Bak yenilikler içinde dolaşan atlıkarınca Olmuşsun, her gülüşün buluşturur ona varınca Muhabbetin içinde serpilmiş marifet ola Her yolun açık olsun onu bula Her bitişin başlangıcı vardır sanma biricik sonun O tatlı coşkunun […]

It was many and many a year ago,In a kingdom by the sea,That a maiden there lived whom you may knowBy the name of Annabel Lee;And this maiden she lived with no other thoughtThan to love and be loved by me. I was a child and she was a child,In this kingdom by the sea:But […]

To lose thee — sweeter than to gainAll other hearts I knew.’Tis true the drought is destitute,But then, I had the dew! Anatolia has its realms of sand,Its other realm of sea.Without the sterile perquisite,My home couldn’t be. Emily Dickinson

Söz bilmez, bileydi gitmez Kör göz kör kalb çileydi çekmez Ahh duraydı olmuş bir derdest Ne dert de mert gezmiş sermest Aldi gitti onu belki virane Ama bir gün gül konmuş olmuş pervane Onunla olur bir gün bin sermaye Yeterki tut ondan O, olursun merdane Ve birden uçmuş kendine soranı Ister aşka aşikar olanı Her […]

Full many a glorious morning have I seen Flatter the mountain-tops with sovereign eye, Kissing with golden face the meadows green, Gilding pale streams with heavenly alchemy; Anon permit the basest clouds to ride With ugly rack on her celestial face And from the forlorn world her visage hide, Stealing unseen to west with this […]

Bundan sonra öfke bize uysallık sana Güceniklik bize, gönül almak sana Suçlamak bize, katlanmak sana Acizlik bize, yanılgı bize. Hoş görmek sana —- Geçimsizlikler, çatışmalar, anlaşmazlıklar bize, adalet sana Kötü göz, şom ağız, haksız yorum bize, bağışlama sana Bundan böyle bölmek bize, bütünlemek sana Üşengeçlik bize, uyarmak ve gayretlendirmek, şekillendirmek sana —- Ey oğul, Sabretmesini […]

See upon my generation. So charged like an atoms split. Many celebrations in libation. To move a soul on its tilt, lit and fit. Where endless currents wash over. Your thirst comes sober. I say, that look we know. And my heart is an open book for you to sow. Come sit at my table. […]

I am calling to you from afar, Calling to you since the very beginning of days, Calling to you across millennia For aeons of time. Calling, calling…Since always. It is part of your being, my voice. But it comes to you faintly and you only hear it sometimes. ‘I don’t know’, you may say, but […]

Ask those who know,What’s this soul within the flesh we sow.His right put upon a force and we its scenes.We are not just blood filled within these veins. Thought is an errand boy,Fear a mine of worries.Through sighs come clothe love’s joy.Care not of a king and a throne he seizes. Give thanks to His […]

Gel, gelmemende gaye mi gitti. Sor, bülbülde bahtiyarlık mı bitti. Her halinde hak elzemdir hudadan bir herzen. Abid’de ne arar sahtekarlık ey sersem. Dergahı marifetden soluklanan merhamet. İle hareket eden kalbi Samet. Bilmez müflis biçarelerin hileyi hareket. Anlayamayan anlayamaz o nicelere gelmeyen zarafet. Gelipde geçen silsileyi safiyet Bükülür benliğimin murdar-i mahviyet

Kışta doğarsın Ama kalbin bir karanfil kokulu  Sarılarcasına saçılmış Da, soğuta gözlerini acarsın … Dünyanın rengi demir ahşap Mevsimler gelir gider Kuşlar uçar gider Gök kuşağın dibinde Irmakların kokusu belki sinmez Gül bahçeleri kendine mahrum bile bilirsin Çünkü bir beka ariyorsun … Belkide mahkûm yaşarsın Toprağın rengini Bir gülüşünün huzurunu unutursun Buz dağlar tepelerin tapınağı […]

Tips of grain pass by my windowpane Like the thin veins of a heart Against the bask and rain But why shudder, such art Hard and thistle Made in bare and bristle Purposeless only to eat and please Now set in with ease A swallow and shudder For are we this to one another Laid […]

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; … Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was […]

Singing your songs Sprinkles caterpillars And humming gongs A high tide, shivers seep on to rivers >>> Feeling, like a hay in a hurricane In silent surrender Patient in pain For a drop of such splendor tender >>> Enveloped in all, but nothing Beginnings bloom to their becoming As my heart reaches Timefull tear drops […]

A fathom deep in sleep I lie With old desires, restrained before To clamor lifeward with a cry As dark flies out the greying door And so in quest of creeds to share I seek assertive day again But old monotony is still there Endless avenues of rain —- Oh, might I rise again! Might […]

Staring, moments washing by And all it took was a silent sigh Like a childhood daydream Kids waking up, hitting the head beam ___ An ocean of empty Rests many hearts plenty With treasures sifted through like sand All nothing without the hold of your hand ___ Sycamore trees and bumbling bees Ooh I’d wish […]

Neydi bu…. Bi gülsen. Ahh o deli gözlerini bi anlasam. Derdini anlatsam. Neydi seni bu hale sokan, bi bilsem. Gelip mendilin olsam. Okşasam… Kalbinin ritmini elimle pansuman yapsam. Güneş cildini çok yakmış, çaresizlikten. Ağaç olup, gölgeledirsem. Zamanı dondurup, nefes almanı sağlayabilsem Akımın hararetine vücudumu bi gersem. Neydi bu.. Bi gülsen.

The mailman brings age, in sun or rain His boots echo through each and every joy and pain – Carrying letters of all shapes and sizes Each one as if our hearts prizes – He knows what it brings too Setting us in a brew – Treasured vaults, our first, our thirst, and our fault […]

Minds tethered to the eyes tips —- We walk this earth Around, sights hold a barren dearth Almost gone, theres a falling curtain Rest becoming their certain —- Some sole travelled and weary Others hooked on another’s dreary Lightning beams, saplings, generous and green Living for a rerunning dream —- In fields of folly we […]

Mehtaplar altı firari feryadların O tatlı tazelik içinde tenhağın Ekdi eskimeyen bir ekşi endamın Gittin gideli ____ Ama, duygular aşkın ile dalgın Adeta sönmez şefkatlı salgın Gelişin serdi saf saf sevgi Sineler sofralı sümbül sergi ____ Başaklar buruk, muhabbet basınçlı bir bulut Her bakışın yeni yelkenli umut Sonsuz hengamından okşayan hudut Geldin geleli —- Oldu […]
