Nazım Hikmet Memleket Lyrics English Translation

Seni Dünya paylaşamıyor, şiirlerin bin dilde
The world cannot share you, your poems are in a thousand languages
Seni senden okumak var ya seninle aynı dile
Is it possible to read you from you? I wish the same thing as you.
Mezarın orda olsa burda olsa ne olur
What would happen if your grave was there or here?
Tepende bir taş olsa çınar olsa ne olur
What would happen if there was a stone or a plane tree on top of you?
Kitapların özgür artık, müjdeler olsun Nazım
Your books are free now, good news Nazım
Sen yazmaya devam et, hasreti yazma Nazım
You keep writing, don't write about longing, Nazım.
Varna önlerindeydin, Sen artık döndün Nazım
You were in front of Varna, now you're back Nazım
Karadeniz köpürdü, memlekettesin Nazım
The Black Sea is foaming, you are in your hometown, Nazım
Nazım Hikmet memleket, memleket Nazım Hikmet
Nazım Hikmet country, hometown Nazım Hikmet
Kafiye için yazmadık, hasret sana memleket
We didn't write it for rhyme, longing for you homeland
