Diyebilseydim If Only I Could Say

Anladım diyemem ki! Suçluyum
Belki ben anlatamadım sana kendimi
Tutuştum, yandım da yokluğunda her gece
Yine gözyaşlarımla söndürdüm kalbimi
Her gün her dakika seni özlerdim
Bitmezdi kederim senin yanında bile
Susardım, gözlerime baktığın zaman
Mermer bir heykelin çaresizliğiyle
Oysa neler düşünürdüm sen yokken
Sana kavuşunca neler söylemek isterdim
Dakikalar bir ışık hızıyla geçerdi
Ayrılık başlayınca ben biterdim
En kötüsü beni koyup gitmendi
O öyle bir yalnızlıktı anlatılmaz
Hep yarım kalmış heyecanlar hazlar içinde
Biterdi bir kış, geçerdi bir yaz
Ve nice yıllar kovalardı birbirini
Gözlerimde gitgide büyürdü mesafeler
Bütün teselliler uzaklarda kalırdı
Bütün çiçekleriyle solardı bahçeler
Ne olurdu saadetlerin en büyüğü
İşte ellerimde al, diyebilseydim
Anlardın, ve hiç gitmezdin, değil mi
Bir gün duyduğum gibi kal diyebilseydim.

I can't say I understood you! I am guilty
Perhaps I couldn't express my feelings
I was in fires every night, at your absence
I used my tears to stop the fires in my heart
I used to miss you every day, every minute
My longing never ended even when I was with you
It made me quiet, when you looked into my eyes
As helpless as a marble statue
You didn't know what I used to think when you weren't with me
And what I wanted to say when we came together
Time flied like an arrow
And it was the end for me when you left me
The worst was being left alone
I can't tell that loneliness
Winters ended, summers passed
In half-lived emotions and joys
And years passed one after another
Distances grew inside me
Nothing was enough to console me
All flowers died in the gardens.
If only I could say
I have the greatest of happinesses, take it
You would understand, wouldn't you
If I could say DON'T GO, just as I felt it.
