İstanbul Lyrics English Translation

Anamız ağlıyor İstanbul
Our mother is crying Istanbul
Ha gayret sarhoşuz bu gece, yine
Oh no, we're drunk tonight, again
Kıyısız kalmışız dostlarla
We are left without a shore with friends
Masada bol rakı, bol roka
Lots of raki and arugula on the table
Ver elini İstanbul, vapurlara binelim
Give me your hand Istanbul, let's get on the ferries
Tütsün bacamız, cigaramız
Let our chimneys smoke, our cigarettes
Hani birazda çakırsak eğer
What if we crash a little bit?
Elleşmesin bize kimse
No one should touch us
Ay geceden ötede, uzakta
The moon is far away in the night
Bir küçük pervaz önünde, vapurlar
Ferries in front of a small sill
Sardunyam bana küsmüş, ağlar
My geranium is angry with me and cries
Dayanmaz artık adam, ağlar
The man can't stand it anymore, he cries
Dayanmaz İstanbul, ağlar
Istanbul cannot bear it, it cries
