Bir İş Var There is Something

Her gün bu kadar güzel mi bu deniz?
Böyle mi görünür gökyüzü her zaman?
Her zaman güzel mi bu kadar,
Bu eşya, bu pencere?
Değil,
Vallahi değil;
Bir iş var bu işin içinde.

Is this sea as bautiful as this everyday?
Does the sky look like this all the time?
This furniture, these windows,
Are they always as beautiful as this?
No,
I swear to God, no;
There is something strange going on.
