Efulim Lyrics English Translation

Hey kız onyedili kız, gözleri yıldız yıldız
Hey girl seventeen girl, her eyes are stars
Gel otur çakıllara, seninle konuşacağız
Come sit on the pebbles, we'll talk to you
Eğer baban vermezse, dağlara kaçacağız
If your father doesn't give in, we'll run away to the mountains
Yedi renk martı gibi, göklere çıkacağız, efulim
Like seagulls of seven colors, we will take to the skies, efulim
Yel uçurur ağlari, oy farozda farozda
The wind blows away the nets, the vote is in the faroz, the vote is in the faroz
Kaçamayan kızları, kuruturlar çirozda
Girls who can't escape, they dry them in kippers
Ah sevdalin uşak olsam, belune kuşak olsam
Oh if I were your lover's servant, if I were your beloved's girdle
Okşarken yanağuni, gülden yumuşak olsam, efulim
When I caress your cheek, I wish I were softer than a rose, I'm beautiful
Atmaca doğan olsam, kapilarına konsam
If I were a hawk falcon and landed at your door
Gece uyurken yarum, döşeğinde bulunsam
When you sleep at night, if I were on your bed
Gece geldum duydun mi, güzelum uyudun mi
I came at night, did you hear me, beautiful, did you sleep?
Bağırdım kapılarda, sesumi tanudin mi, efulim
I shouted at the doors, sesumi tanudin mi, efulim
Nakarat
chorus
Parmağum batti bala, yala ufağum yala
My finger dipped in honey, lick it little one, lick it
Ben fırsat arayirum, sen babani oyala
I'm looking for an opportunity, you distract your father
Sen balık ben ağ olsam, yüreğine yağ olsam
If you were the fish and I were the net, if I were the oil for your heart
Her gun bile gezerduk, çarığına bağ olsam, efulim
We used to walk around every day, if I were a tie for your sandals, my efulim
Nakarat
chorus
