Melancholy again. Very famous poem and song.

 

Haydi Abbas Come on Abbas

Haydi Abbas, vakit tamam; Come on Abbas, it is the time.
Akşam diyordun işte oldu akşam.
You were saying “wait untill the evening” It is now..
Kur bakalım çilingir soframizı;
Set our rakı table
Dinsin artık bu kalp ağrısı.
And let this heartache cease now.
Şu ağacın gölgesinde olsun;
Set it under the shadow of this tree.
Tam kenarında havuzun.
Exactly beside the pool.
Aya haber sal çıksın bu gece;
Send a message to the moon, let it appear tonight.
Görünsün şöyle gönlümce.
Let it appear as I wish
Bas kırbacı sihirli seccadeye,
Whip the flying carpet
Göster hükmettiğini mesafeye
Show how you rule the distance
Ve zamana.
And time
Katıp tozu dumana,
Raising a cloud of dust
Var git,
Go
Böyle ferman etti Cahit,
Thus commanded Cahit
Al getir ilk sevgiliyi
Beşiktaş´tan; Take and bring first beloved from Beşiktaş
Yaşamak istiyorum gençliğimi baştan.
I want to live my youth since the beginning.

 

Cahit Sıtkı Tarancı
