Can someone please help me translate this speech for me? (A little bit urgent).

Mum and Dad, first of all I want to thank you for coming all the way here. And thank you for, after given me life, never failed to take me seriously. This is the most important gift someone can achieve out of childhood. It is this source, which makes me to stay here today as the one I am, and I am grateful for that
I may not do what you suggest always, but I do listen. You guys really have gotten wise since I was 15 though.

And now I have another family as well. I can imagine it was a bit of a shock when "name" came home and told you about the foreign girl, but you have both dealt with that better than I could ever have imagined. You have welcomed me into your family  with open arms, and I have felt included in your family from day one. You have both always been there for "name" and I, and for that I thank you. You are also giving us the day of our dreams tomorrow, and I am forever grateful. And most important of all, you are the reason behind the fantastic man I am married to - so well done, you have done a great job!

I also want to thank "name" and "name" - you have both been like a brother and sister to me, thank you very much.

I am also very lucky to have the best of the best of friends, and they are all here today - together with my beloved sister and her boyfriend. I have always known how fantastic each of you are, and by being here today, you are just confirming that, again. Even though the journey was long, you are here with us, on our most special day, celebrating with us. Thank you so much for being the best friends and family that anyone can wish for.

So finally, I saved the best to the end - that`s the way it should be, isn`t it?
"name" came into my life and completely changed it - for the better, in case you were wondering.

"name", when I think back at the first day when we met 6 years ago - who could have imagined that we would be here today, celebrating our marriage. You were not given an easy task when you wanted to get to know me, but you never gave up, and you have me fall deeply in love with you.
We are living proof that love happens when you least expect it.

Our roads have were made while walking them. Early in the relationship we decided that we were going to make this. As it showed up, we were both the same stubborn. We believed in the motto "Biggest of all is love", and differences were made up by similarities. I found myself in you, and you in me.

Having a distance-relationship have been tough. But we have made it with success. We learned to chear each other up, and appreciate even the smallest things - like sleeping aside each other at nights, having breakfasts together - all through a camera. You have given me an enormous strenght, trust og patience. I still remember one day, I was moving into our apartment and an accident broke our new bed. I was tired, furious and sad, and you called me a couple of minutes later, just to say "Beds and houses, they are all empty things. A bed can be repared, but you can not. And I can live without a bed, but I can not live without you". That day, as on many other days, you made me feel better right away.

"Name", you are sensitive, easy to please, sometimes a bit apathetic, intensely committed, highly strung, courageous, inscrutable. You can be defensive – or resolute. You have a good sense of humour and a big and warm heart. In other words you are an absolutely fantastic, complex person.

I don’t think I’ve ever been so angry with anyone as with you.
I don’t think I’ve ever been so weak or so strong as when I’ve been together with you.
I don’t think I’ve ever been so filled with love as when I am together with you.

You bring out everything that is in me. When we communicate I feel like a whole person. Thank you for giving me this feeling.

"name", I love you.

And now I would like to propose a toast to the bridegroom.

Thank you so much Faruk, I appreciate it very much

I wish you a nice evening.

Hand Ceremony

Anyway, thank you so much. I wish you a Happy New Year. May 2011 be filled with joy for you.

Bump

Trying again as it`s my last chance today.

Anyone please?

Sonbahar is right

 There is no ash, there is no smoke - there is nothing at all

First of all I want to wish you a Happy New Year. I am so grateful for being able to celebrate this special day with you. While going through hard times like we are at the moment, I appreciate every minute with you even more than I thought was ever possible before.

Some people make a wish for New Years Eve, others a promise. I will do both this year. My wish for 2011 is to be with you as much as possible, to start our life together as we should have done this year. I wish that someone will hear our prayers, and make our wishes come true this year. I have a good feeling for 2011, this is going to be our year.

Today, while entering into 2011 I am also making a promise. I am promising to continue to be by your side no matter what, no matter how long it will take. I am promising you that we will unite in our home one day - this year.

You know that I love you with my entire heart. You are my happiness and joy in this life.

I am your wife and you my husband, but I want you to know that I also really look forward to our coming wedding, which I am sure will be one day to remember. I am forever in love with you, and I can`t wait to be your wife, once again.

Thank you so much ZulfuLivaneli - I appreciate it so much

I wish you a fantastic day!

1. Thank you so much gokuyum


2. Have a nice day.

True Love

True love is when you see his face
When everything blurs together
And you only see him
Standing across the room

True love is when you dance with him
Even though you can barley keep rhythm
You dance the night away
In the comfort of his arms

True love is when your married
And tears are spilling down your cheeks
Painting a wonderful picture of emotions
All devoted to him

True love is when you see the face of your child
And she smiles up at you
A face so beautiful and perfect
You are lost for words

True loves is when times are rough
He still finds time to tell you he loves you
And he hold you at night
And lets you cry in his arms

True love is when he is stressed
And all his nerves are close to the edge
And you get upset
And he puts down what he is doing and comforts you

True love is when you can go to him for anything
Make-up messed up
World falling apart
And he still thinks you are wonderful

True love is that special someone
That light at the end of the tunnel
The sun in your universe

Thank you so much for using your time and knowledge translating my poems AGAIN

You always help me out and I am really grateful.

Have a wonderful evening gokuyum

Do you know what it is like to live the life,
Of an Turkish Soldier´s Wife?

Always having to stand strong,
Forever pretending nothing´s wrong.

All the tears we shed at night,
Because our husband is not there to hold us tight.

All the time´s we sit in silence and pray,
That God will bring him home safely to stay.

Or when our hearts feel as heavy as stone´s,
Cause we are apart and all alone.

And out of all the things in this world we miss,
The thing we miss most is his kiss.

We think of him with every breath,
We know without him, our life is death.

Dreading another missed tomorrow.

And hearing everyone call him a Hero, your heart swells with pride,
You say, Thank You, and smile to hide the void you feel inside.

He doesn´t choose to be away from his family and friends,
But, without our Soldiers this war would never end.

Thanks

Ayvayı yedin ama olsun

Thank you so much dear gokuyum You`re truly a star, thank you so much for your never ending assistance

Thanks

Bump

Thank you gokuyum, I had a lovely time as always

Hopefully someone will continue where you left and finish the poem

Thank you so much gokuyum - I am sorry I haven`t seen your reply earlier as I am in Turkey at the moment. I appreciate your kind help as always

Have a great day.

 What is this type (lan, slangname for friends/boys)

When is the wedding my brother

My attempt.

 Thank you very much for adding me. I am enjoying (loving) and listening to your song. You are very successful and I wish for you that it will continue like that.

My attempt.

Nights long, constant sounds of attack,
A soldiers nightmare, of not returning back.
"Focus, stay, focused," is the whispers in his ears,
Borderline losing it, when its his wife´s voice he hears

Running, hiding, become daily routine,
Blood shed on both sides, now a daily scene.
There it is, that sweet sound,
The comfort in his wife´s voice, the peace he has found.

"Focus honey, be careful, I love you, " ringing in his head,
"Everything is going to be alright, just as God said."
Call unto Him, and lay your burdens aside,
God is the Commander, traveling by your side.

A smile touches his lips, as he visions her face,
Standing alone in the kitchen, keeping things in place.

Knees buckling, she hit the floor,
Tears streaming, as she prayed once more.

"Father, please, I know there´s something wrong,
My heart is now offbeat, no longer a perfect song.
Keep Your hand upon him, heal what needs healing,
He is scared, Lord, and his pain I am feeling.
There´s not much I believe in, but I do believe in You,
I do believe in miracles, and the healing that you do.
Let him know I miss him, and I need him hear with me,
Let him feel my heart Lord, his love is what I need.
Thank you, Lord, for listening and comforting my heart,
Thank you for giving us stregnth, even though we´re miles apart."
Amen.

As he lays there, upon the enemies soil,
He remember his loving wife, and the faith she holds so loyal.
He can almost feel her now, as he slowly drifts away,
Blackness embraces him, and his heart hears all she has to say.

Lightness comes from the distance, a woman dressed in white,
Beauty shining within her eyes, as she reaches out tonight.
Lips pursed in a smile, as she whispers I love you,
DOn´t you worry honey, Our God will see you through.

She placed a kiss, soft and gentle to his skin,
As he reached out for her,the light gone, he began to pray again.

"Father, please, my wife and I are believers, we know your name,
My wife is my rock, and I dream of our children to be,
I can feel her weeping Lord, I know she feels my pain,
Being away from her, is driving me insane.
I can hear her voice, shakey at times,
Telling me she loves me and be careful, I will be just fine.
Yet Lord, she has found comfort, in your embrace,
Such a powerful hold you have on her, for someone who has no face.
Noone has ever seen you, but it seems they feel your presence,

So Lord, if you can wipe away disease, and make the lame walk,
I am the reason,pushing you away was simply, all my fault.
I have come to realize what I was so blind to see,
That you have came to my rescue, in all my times of need.
I want you to know Lord, I thank you, something I never said,
For being with my wife, my children, and the sinful life I led.
For if it wasn´t for you, I would of been dead long ago,
So if I have to go now Lord, there´s one thing I have to know.
Will I walk in Glory, will I see my Maker´s face?
Will I see my wife again, in a righteous place?
I know so many questions, but I feel her pain,
Can you let her know Lord, I love her just the same.
That she was my rock, my best friend,
The mother of my children, her powerful stregnth I commend.
She is my heart and soul, she is the sparkle in my eyes,
She is my hope, as the long nights slip by.
(tears flooding this soldiers face)
Her picture is what I hold, as I slip off to sleep,
But as I drift away now, her memories I will keep.
Thank You Lord, for the Angel you shared with me,
Keep her in your loving embrace, for eternity.

Eyelids flicker, the light so bright,
The commander looking down at him, "Son are you alright?"
Tears flooded his vision, as God reached for him,
”It´s alright son, another chance your given”.

Picking up the phone, he had to make a call,
But before he could, his wife was in the hall.
As the door swung open, tears in her eyes,
"God told me you will be fine," choking back her cries.

As she watched her husband, she could feel the presence of the Lord,
Knowing with all her heart, her husband has been saved.
"Thank you God, for all you´ve said and done.

 Did I love? I`ll love like Allah. Did you understand my dear? No one can love as much as I do.

My attempt.

 Bende
Kolay gelsin!

Thank you very much for your attemps - could anyone be kind to translate it all?

It’s your birthday,
but I’m the lucky girl who got to be with you for another year.
It’s your birthday, and the older you get, the more wonderful you become.

It’s your birthday, and I’m privileged to share the years with you.
It’s your birthday, and each year I find the depth of my love for you growing.

It’s your birthday, and I look forward with joy to each day we spend together.
It’s your birthday, and I wonder how I got along for all the birthdays I didn’t know you.

It’s your birthday, and it’s amazing how easy and enjoyable it is to be with you each day.
It’s your birthday, and no matter what fate has in store for us, I know it will be a pleasure to spend life with you.

It’s your birthday, but I got the gift-- You in my life for another year.

I don`t know if it something wrong in this thread or on my computer - but I can`t see any of the replies. Could anyone be so kind to send me the translation in a PM?

Pelgidium - thank you so much

A husband is the one special man who brings
every happiness and shares every sweetness
with the woman who is fortunate enough to be his wife.
A husband is the one special soul who is the love of her life.

A husband is a desire to never be apart. 
He is the answer to one of the most important questions anyone can ask;
he is whom you want to spend all of your days withh...always.
No one else is quite like him.
No one else is capable of reaching you in the same way.
There is something wonderful about him that brightens the days and makes dreams come true.
He is the one man in the world you want to walk with along life´s path.
Together, the two of you have made such beautiful memories.
Together, in the warmth of every today, you still do.
And forever, he will be the one you want to be beside as you discover everything tomorrow has in store.

A husband is your one special man, and you wish he could really understand how wonderful he is.

Because there is no one you could possibly love more

Thanks a lot everybody Appreciate your help.

Well done.

Is it not Emrah`a?

Nights long, constant sounds of attack,
A soldiers nightmare, of not returning back.
"Focus, stay, focused," is the whispers in his ears,
Borderline losing it, when its his wife´s voice he hears

Running, hiding, become daily routine,
Blood shed on both sides, now a daily scene.
There it is, that sweet sound,
The comfort in his wife´s voice, the peace he has found.

"Focus honey, be careful, I love you, " ringing in his head,
"Everything is going to be alright, just as God said."
Call unto Him, and lay your burdens aside,

Tears streaming, as she prayed once more.

Keep Your hand upon him, heal what needs healing,
He is scared, Lord, and his pain I am feeling.
There´s not much I believe in, but I do believe in You,
I do believe in miracles, and the healing that you do.
Let him know I miss him, and I need him hear with me,
Let him feel my heart Lord, his love is what I need.
Thank you, Lord, for listening and comforting my heart,
Thank you for giving us stregnth, even though we´re miles apart."
Amen.

As he lays there, upon the enemies soil,
He remember his loving wife, and the faith she holds so loyal.
He can almost feel her now, as he slowly drifts away,
Blackness embraces him, and his heart hears all she has to say.

Beauty shining within her eyes, as she reaches out tonight.

Please, anyone?

Cherished are the memories that
Brought us to this day,
For yesterday, was just a dream ...
A wish to contemplate.

A fantasy where in my mind,
A fleeting glimpse I´d see ...
A vision of the true desires
I longed for endlessly.

And when I dreamed, I did not know
The love I´d feel today;
The height of my true feelings,
And the depths they would portray.

And if I had one wish today,
A simple wish t´would be ...
Is that the love we feel this moment,
Lasts eternally.

Reality has merged now
As you stand here by my side;
And as I join your hand in mine,
My heart does fill with pride.

For as I pledge my love to you,
I see in many ways,
Reflections of my love for you
Are mirrored in your gaze.

And by our presence here today,
And for the love we share,
I thank you for our yesterdays
That brought us to be here.

But more than this, I vow to you,
My wishes yet to come ...
Tomorrow´s dreams and fantasies,
This day that we are one.

Tomorrow´s an adventure
That we´ll share together now;
Our future´s intertwined forever,
Through this holy vow.

I promise to remember
In the future years and days,
The love I feel for you this moment ...
... Dreams fulfilled today.

For in the coming years as we
Move on, and reminisce,
Back to the day I stood with you
And promised with a kiss ...

That blessed are the days that
I have looked into your eyes,
And felt the warmth and love reflect,
The essence of our lives.

*****

Yesterday we dreamed of what might be;
Today we validate our love;
And tomorrow we will cherish the life we have shared as one.

 No my dear, how can I ever be angry..

Again

Thanks gokuyum... again

Have a wonderful day.

Senin o gözlerin varya herseyi bitirdi yazıik ettin gecen günleri...

Bir insanin idealleri olmali sonsuzluk gibi bir insanin özlem: olmali özlkem derken cicekler gibi. Bir insanin birtasi olmali. Tipki senin gibi

Sen bazen zifiri karanlik gecenin günesi, sen bazen hayatin cesaret veren mutluluk yani ve sen her zaman sevgimin tek nedensin.

Thank you very much gokuyum

 Sonunda yaz geldi I would say.

A SOLDIER´S GIRL

Everyone hears of the Soldier Wife,
Her trials, sacrifices, and devoted life.
She is strong, she is brave, and she is loving indeed,
Standing by her man in his time of need.

Will there be peace or will there be war?
You try to be hopeful but it´s hard to ignore.
The world seems to be falling apart
When to a soldier you have given your heart.

Your love runs too deep to escape from it now.
You hope to be together somewhere, somehow,
When his duty is over and your life can begin.
You wonder if it will happen but don´t question when.

The many heartbreaks and times you did weep
When he made promises the Military couldn´t keep.
But you have learned so much together and come so far.
Others warned you not to fall in love but you already are.

His job is ever-changing and takes him far away.
You think of him always and pray every day--
For his safety, his courage, and his love for you
That he may remain steadfast, loyal, and true.

Nothing is sure and nothing is set in stone...
Except that he will leave again and you will be alone,
Holding tightly to your dreams of a future together
When you will at last be able to say the word "forever."

Tears have become anything but a stanger.
They fall freely in sadness, loneliness, and anger.
But he will never know because you will never tell.
You´ve learned to hide your misery only too well.

A few years? That doesn´t sound like so long.
The letters and phone calls keep your love going strong,
Even when they are few and far between,
In them, his love for you can clearly be seen.

So keep your chin up and a smile on your face.
He is protecting your freedom and keeping you safe.
His heart is strong and his love is true
And don´t ever forget that he is missing you too

Cherished are the memories that
Brought us to this day,
For yesterday, was just a dream ...
A wish to contemplate.

A fantasy where in my mind,
A fleeting glimpse I´d see ...
A vision of the true desires
I longed for endlessly.

And when I dreamed, I did not know
The love I´d feel today;
The height of my true feelings,
And the depths they would portray.

And if I had one wish today,
A simple wish t´would be ...
Is that the love we feel this moment,
Lasts eternally.

Reality has merged now
As you stand here by my side;
And as I join your hand in mine,
My heart does fill with pride.

For as I pledge my love to you,
I see in many ways,
Reflections of my love for you
Are mirrored in your gaze.

And by our presence here today,
And for the love we share,
I thank you for our yesterdays
That brought us to be here.

But more than this, I vow to you,
My wishes yet to come ...
Tomorrow´s dreams and fantasies,
This day that we are one.

Tomorrow´s an adventure
That we´ll share together now;
Our future´s intertwined forever,
Through this holy vow.

I promise to remember
In the future years and days,
The love I feel for you this moment ...
... Dreams fulfilled today.

For in the coming years as we
Move on, and reminisce,
Back to the day I stood with you
And promised with a kiss ...

And felt the warmth and love reflect,
The essence of our lives.

As always gokuyum you help me out Thank you so much.

Iyi günler

There isn´t always enough time to say and do the things that we would like to do in life. Before you know it, the years pass by so suddenly. So, I thought I would take this time to tell you how much I love you.

I realize that living with me can be difficult at times; and for your patience and understanding I thank you. Sometimes I have wondered why you put up with me, what it is about me that you find so attractive, why you stay with me. But, day upon day, and year upon year you have proven your faithful devotion to me again and again. And, for that I thank you.

When I have been discouraged or weak or sick, you were there. When I was broken and battered and confused, you were there. When I was confused and defeated and could not love myself, you were there. In all these ways you have loved me.

I have not always known how to show love. Before I met you I never thought I would be able to love again. But, you have inspired me. There is something about you that has forever changed me and my heart. I have found the capacity within to love you and every day I love youmore.

I love you because of your smile and your laughter and your encouraging words. I love you because of all the sacrifices you make for me. I love you because of your unflinching commitment to me. I love you because... you love me.

I hope that you can understand that there is a place beyond words and emotions where the expression of my love for you dwells. I can scarcely define for you how very much I love you and the words seem to only scratch the surface. But know, that my love for you is real and growing and deeper and richer every day. I am so grateful that God has given you to me as a gift.

Through you I have found love and learned to love.

I love you

I agree with you Lady in red...

Wow Faruk, that was a long one... Thank you so much

I wish you a great day!!

Thanks

Bir otobüs duraginda karsilasmislardi ilk kez…. Biri tipta okuyordu, öbürü
mimarlikta. O ilk karsilasmadan sonra, bir kere, bir kere, bir kere daha
karsilasabilmek için, hep ayni saatte, ayni duraktan, ayni otobüse bindiler.
Gençtiler, çok genç… Birbirileriyle konusacak cesareti bulmalari biraz
zaman aldi ama sonunda basrdilar. Ikisi de her sabah otobüse bindikleri
semtte oturmuyorlardi aslinda. Delikanli arkadasinda kaldigi için o duraktan
binmisti otobüse, kiz ise ablasinda…. Sirf birbirilerini görebilmek için,
her sabah erkenden evlerinden çikip, sehrin öbür ucundaki o duraga, onlarin
duragina geldiklerini, gülerek itiraf ettiler bir süre sonra…
Okullarini bitirince hemen evlendiler. Mutluydular hem de çok mutlu… Bazen
issiz, bazen parasiz kaldilar ama öylesine siki kenetlenmisti ki yürekleri
ve elleri hiçbir seyi umursamadilar. Ayin sonunu zor getirdikleri günlerde
de ünlü bir doktor ve ünlü bir mimar olduklarinda da hep mutluydular. Zaman
asimina ugrayan, aliskanliklara yenik düsen, banka hesabinda para kalmadigi
için ya da tam tersine o hesabi daha da kabarik hale getirmek uguruna
bitip-tükeniveren sevgilerden degildi onlarinki… Günler günleri, yillar
yillari kovaladikça sevgileri de büyüdü, büyüdü… Tek eksikleri
çocuklarinin olmamasiydi. Zorlu bir tedavi sürecine ragman çocuk sahibi
olmayinca, “bütün
mutluluklarin bizim olmasini beklemek, bencillik olur” diyerek devam ettiler
hayatlarina. Çocuk yerine, sevgilerini büyüttüler… “Senin için ölürüm”
derdi kadin, simsiki sarilip adama ve adma “Hayir, ben senin için ölürüm”
diye yanit verirdi hep…
Bazen eve geldiginde, aynanin üzerinde bir not görürdü kadin, “Bir tanem,
kütüphanenin ikinci rafina bak….” Kütüphanenin ikinci rafinda baska bir
not olurdu, “Mutfaktaki masanin üzerine bak ve seni çok sevdigimi sakin
unutma” Mutfaktaki masadan, salondaki dolaba sevgi dolu notlari okuya okuya
kosturan kadin, sonunda kimi zaman bir demet çiçek, kimi zaman en sevdigi
çikolatalar, kimi zaman da pahali armaganlarla karsilasirdi… Aldigi
hediyenin ne oldugu önemli degildi zaten….
Hayat ne kadar hizli akarsa aksin, isleri ne kadar yogun olursa olsun hep
birbirlerine ayiracak zaman buluyorlardi bulmasina ama kirkli yaslarin
ortalarina geldiklerinde, daha az çalismaya karar verdiler. Adam, hastaneden
ayrildi ve muayenehanesinde hasta kabul etmeye basladi. Kadin da mimarlik
bürosunu kapadi ve sadece özel projelerde görev aldi. Artik daha fazla
beraber olabiliyorlardi. Bir gün sahilde dolasirken, harap durumda bir ev
gördü kadin, üzerinde “satilik” levhasi asili olan. “Ne dersin, bu evi
alalim mi?” dedi adama. “Bu viraneyi yiktirir, harika bir ev yapariz.
Projeyi kafamda çizdim bile. Kocaman terasi olan, martilari kahvaltiya davet
edecegimiz bir deniz evi yapalim
burayi…” “Sen istersin de ben hiç hayir diyebilirmiyim?” diye yanit verdi
adam. “Amerika’daki tip kongresinden döner dönmez ararim emlakçiyi… Kaç
para olursa olsun, burasi bizimdir artik….”
Sadece bir hafta ayri kalacaklarini bildikleri halde, ayrilmalari zor oldu
adam Amerika’ya giderken.Her gün, her saat konustular telefonla. Gözyaslari
içinde kucaklastilar havaalaninda. Fakat birkaç gün sonra, kocasinda bir
tuhaflik oldugunu fark etti kadin. Eskisi kadar mutlu görünmüyor,
konusmaktan kaçiniyordu. Onu neselendirmek için, sahildeki evi hatirlatti ve
çizdigi projeyi verdi kadin ama hiç beklemedigi bir cevap aldi: “Canim, o ev
bizim bütçemizi asiyor. Sen en iyisi o evi unut…”
Mutsuzluk, mutlulugun tadina alismis insanlara daha da aci, daha da çekilmez
gelir. Kadin, hiç sevmedi bu beklenmedik misafiri. Derdini söylemesi için
yalvardi adama, “Senin için ölürüm, biliyorsun, ne olur anlat” diye dil
döktü bos yere… Yillardir sevdigi adam, duyarsiz ve sevgisiz biriyle yer
degistirmisti sanki. Ona ulasmaya çalistikça, beton duvarlara çarpiyordu
kadin, her çarpmada daha fazla kaniyordu yüregi…
Bir gün, çocuklugunun, gençliginin ve bütün hayatinin birlikte geçtigi
arkadasina dert yanarken, “Artik dayanamiyorum, sana söylemek zorundayim”
diye sözünü kesti arkadasi. “O, seni aldatiyor. Is yerimin tam karsisindaki
restoranda genç bir kadinla yemek yiyiyor her öglen. Sonra sarmas dolas
biniyorlar arabaya….”
“Sus, sus çabuk, duymak istemiyorum bu yalanlari” diye bagirdi kadin. Onca
yillik arkadasini, kendisini kiskanmakla suçladi…. Ertesi gün, ögle vakti
o restoranin hemen karsisinda bir köseye sindi sessizce ve peri masallarinin
sadece masal oldugunu anladi… Kocasinin eskiden ayni hastanede çalistigi
genç çocuk doktorunu tanidi hemen. Bazen evlerinde agirladiklari kadina
nasil sarildigini
gördü adamin…
Aksam kocasi eve gelir gelmez, bazen bagirip, bazen aglayarak, bazen ona
simsiki sarilip bazen de yumruklayarak haykirdi suratina her seyi. Inkar
etmedi adam. Zamanla duygularin degisebildigi, insanlarin orta yasa
geldiklerinde farklilik aradigi gibi bir seyler geveledi agzinda ve bavulunu
alip gitti evden. Kapidan çikarken, “son bir kez kucaklamak isterim seni”
diyecek oldu ama kadin, “defol” dedi nefretle…
Ilk celsede bosandilar… Modern bir ask hikayesinin böyle son bulmasina
kimse inanamadi. Arkadaslarinin destegiyle ayakta kalmaya çalisti kadin.
Adamin, sevgilisiyle birlikte Amerika’ya yerlestigini ögrendi. Bazen yalniz
kaldiginda, onu hala sevdigini hissedince, aglama nöbetleri geçiriyor, askin
yerini, en az onun kadar yogun bir duygu olan nefretin almasi için dua
ediyordu.
Aradan bir yil geçti… Her seyin ilaci oldugu söylenen zaman bile, kadinin
derdine çare olamamisti. Bir sabah, israrla çalan zilin sesiyle uyandi.
Kapiyi açtiginda, karsisinda o kadini gördü. “Sen, buraya ne yüzle
geliyorsun” diye bagirmak istedi ama sesi çikmadi. “Lütfen, içeri girmeme
izin ver, mutlaka konusmamiz gerekiyor.” dedi genç kadin. Kanepeye ilisti ve
zor duyulan bir sesle konusmaya
basladi: “Hiçbir sey göründügü gibi degil aslinda. Çok üzgünüm ama o bir
saat önce öldü. Geçen yil Amerika’daki kongre sirasinda ögrendi hastaligini
ve yaklasik bir senelik ömrü kaldgini. Buna dayanamayacagini, hep söyledigin
gibi onunla birlikte ölmek isteyecegini biliyordu. Seni kendinden
uzaklastirmak için, benden sevgilisi rolünü oynamami istedi. Ailesine de
haber vermedi. Birlikte Amerika’ya yerlestigimiz yalanini yaydi. Oysa ilk
karsilastiginiz otobüs duraginin karsisinda bir ev tutmustu. Tedavi görüyor
ve kurtulacagina inaniyordu ama olmadi. Gece fenalasmis, bakicisi beni
aradi, son anda yetistim. Sana bu kutuyu vermemi istedi…” Gözlerinden
akan yaslari durduramayacagini biliyordu kadin. Hemen oracikta ölmek
istiyordu. Eline tutusturulan kutuyu açmayi neden sonra akil edebildi.
Itinayla katlanmis bir sürü kagit duruyordu kutuda. Ilk kagitta, “Lütfen
bütün notlari sirayla oku bir tanem” diyordu… Sirayla okudu; “Seni çok
sevdim”, “Seni sevmekten hiç vazgeçmedim”, “Senin için ölürüm derdin hep,
dogru söyledigini bilirdim.” “Fakat benim için ölmeni istemedim” “Simdi bana
söz vermeni istiyorum.” “Benim için yasayacaksin, anlastik mi?” son kagidi
eline alirken, kutuda bir anahtar oldugunu gördü kadin… Ve son kagitta
sunlar yaziliydi:
“Sahildeki evimizi senin çizdigin projeye göre yaptirdim. Kocaman terasta
martilarla kahvalti ederken, ben hep seni izliyor olacagim….”

Bump

A group of professional people posed this question to a group of 4 to 8 year-olds, "What does love mean?"

The answers they got were broader and deeper than anyone could have imagined. See what you think:

"When my grandmother got arthritis, she couldn´t bend over and paint her toenails anymore.

So my grandfather does it for her all the time, even when his hands got arthritis too. That´s love."

- Rebecca - age 8

"When someone loves you, the way they say your name is different.

You just know that your name is safe in their mouth."

- Billy - age 4

"Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other."

- Karl - age 5

"Love is when you go out to eat and give somebody most of your French fries without making them give you any of theirs."

- Chrissy - age 6

"Love is what makes you smile when you´re tired."

- Terri - age 4

"Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK."

- Danny - age 7

"Love is when you kiss all the time. Then when you get tired of kissing, you still want to be together and you talk more.
My Mommy and Daddy are like that. They look gross when they kiss"

- Emily - age 8

"Love is what´s in the room with you at Christmas if you stop opening presents and listen."

- Bobby - age 7 (Wow!)

"If you want to learn to love better, you should start with a friend who you hate."

- Nikka - age 6

"Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday."

- Noelle - age 7

"Love is like a little old woman and a little old man who are still friends even after they know each other so well."

- Tommy - age 6

"During my piano recital, I was on a stage and I was scared. I looked at all the people watching me and saw my daddy waving and smiling.

He was the only one doing that. I wasn´t scared anymore."

- Cindy - age 8

"My mommy loves me more than anybody.

You don´t see anyone else kissing me to sleep at night."

- Clare - age 6

"Love is when Mommy gives Daddy the best piece of chicken."

- Elaine-age 5

"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy smelly and sweaty and still says he is handsomer than Brad Pitt."

- Chris - age 7

"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day."

- Mary Ann - age 4

"I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones."

- Lauren - age 4

"When you love somebody, your eyelashes go up and down and little stars come out of you."
- Karen - age 7

"Love is when Mommy sees Daddy on the toilet and she doesn´t think it´s gross."

- Mark - age 6

"You really shouldn´t say ´I Love You´ unless you mean it. But if you mean it, you should say it a lot. People forget."

- Jessica - age 8

That was so kind of you Thank you very much gokuyum.

I wish you all the best

Thank you so much

The Meaning

To love is to share life together
to build special plans just for two
to work side by side
and then smile with pride
as one by one, dreams all come true.

To love is to help and encourage
with smiles and sincere words of praise
to take time to share
to listen and care
in tender, affectionate ways.

To love is to have someone special
one who you can always depend
to be there through the years
sharing laughter and tears
as a partner, a lover, a friend.

To love is to make special memories
of moments you love to recall
of all the good things
that sharing life brings
love is the greatest of all.

I´ve learned the full meaning
of sharing and caring
and having my dreams all come true;
I´ve learned the full meaning
of being in love
by being and loving with you.

Love is patient. Love is kind.

It does not envy, it does not boast.

It is not proud. It is not rude.

It is not self-seeking.

It is not easily angered.

It keeps no record of wrongs.

Love does not delight in evil,

but rejoices with the truth.

Love always protects, always trusts,

always hopes, always perseveres.

Love bear all things, believes all things,

hopes all things, endures al things.

Love never ends. Love never fails.

 Nooo way Promise.

Quoting zeytinne

One thing i can say... many turkish dont understand foreigners´ jokes

True But in this case you don`t have to worry.

Thank you so much gokuyum I hope you took it as a joke, and not to be true

It looks really nice, and I appreciate it a lot.

The last sentence though, should maybe be Evet Evet Evet in stead of görürüm. It`s meant to be the words you say when you get married.

The sentence is like; Before you understand what`s going to happen, (I will marry you).

I do is the answer you give when you marry someone.

(Do you take "name" to be your.... etc is said)

I wish you a wonderful day!!

I would be happy if someone could translate this JOKE (in case any one else believe it to be real )

My try;

Thanks a lot my dear wise (one)... they are as beautiful as you

In Norway it`s in February

 When are you coming "name? We missed you.

 günün

 Don`t love, in fact I`m bored

How about; Happy Mothers Day! I wish you all a wonderful Sunday, especially for mum. I hope you are all doing fine. How is "name"? I hope he is feeling better by now. Get well soon! Take care of yourself. Be good to mum today. My family send their greetings as well, and congratulations.

You think it`s for real? Of course it`s a joke, and it`s meant to put a smile on someone`s face. Don`t worry!

Waaay to hard for me  Good luck to the translator

Yes, I´ll marry you, my dear, and here´s the reason why; So I can push you out of bed when the baby starts to cry, and if we hear a knocking and it´s creepy and it´s late, I hand you the torch you see, and you investigate.

Yes I´ll marry you, my dear, you may not apprehend it, but when the tumble-drier goes it´s you that has to mend it. You have to face the neighbour should our labrador attack him, and if a drunkard fondles me it´s you that has to whack him.

Yes, I´ll marry you, you´re virile and you´re lean, my house is like a pigsty you can help to keep it clean. That tasty little dinner which you served by candlelight, as I do chipolatas, you can cook it every night!

It´s you who has to work the drill and put up curtain track, and when i am in a mood it´s you who gets the flak. i do see great advantages, but none of them for you, and so before you see the light, I do,I do,I do

Thanks again gokuyum my friend

I really appreciate your kind help and good translations

The ban was there. Shops could not have Kurdish names either, they would close them if you did not change it to a Turkish one.

That is a fact, and things are changing to the better today

(And no, I do not have a Kurdish boyfriend nor am I brainwashed by one )

It does not take that much to study/read history, but you gain a lot from it.

Tomorrow mornin´ if you wake up
And the sun does not appear
I...I will be here

If in the dark we lose sight of love
Hold my hand and have no fear
´Cause I...I will be here

I will be here...
When you feel like bein´ quiet
When you need to speak your mind
I will listen
And I will be here
When the laughter turns to cryin´
Through the winnin´ and losin´ and tryin´
We´ll be together
´Cause I will be here

Tomorrow mornin´ if you wake up
And the future is unclear
I...I´ll be here

Just as sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetimes are made for years
I...I will be here

I will be here....
You can cry on my shoulder
When the mirror tells us we´re older
I will hold you

And I will be here
To watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here

I will be true
To the promise I have made
To you and to the
One who gave you to me

I...I will be here

And just as sure as seasons are made for change
Our lifetimes are made for years
´Cause I...
I will be here....
We´ll be together

´Cause I will be here

Thank you so much gokuyum

As always your great effort and great translations are much appreciated

Iyi günler!

 Yes of course I didn`t notice that ı instead of i

 Seems correct to me

 Wohooo. I was very happy. Let`s hope July will come quick. (like the earlier the better)

As you walk this shadowed road
never feel that you´re alone
for my heart will travel with you
a smile to light your way
love to warm you on the coldest night

You are so far from home
as darkness falls around you
but still our hearts are true
for even in the darkest shadows
believe and you will find your way

My days never ending as                         
I sit alone at dawn             
Sighing...remembering           
Sweet words of longing         
Imagining you are here
Near yet so far away                   
Glowing warmth surrounds me     

You are in my heart...the
Only way that I can hold you
Until we´re together again

With every breath
A burning ache within
Needing to be near
To hold you, love you
In every way
Never to be parted
Growing ever closer

You are in my heart...the
Only way that I can hold you   
Until we´re together again

As you walk this shadowed road
never feel that you´re alone
for my heart will travel with you
a smile to light your way
love to warm you on the coldest night

You are so far from home
as darkness falls around you
but still our hearts are true
for even in the darkest shadows
believe and you will find your way

 As far as I know you have to pass a languagetest to get your turkish citizenship as well after living here for 5 years  Can we say that foreigners are treated like second class people in Turkey then...?

 Emrah`in evinde Yalçinla tanıştım.

My attempt

Ops, listen to gokuyum

 Güzel gözlerini nerede?

Ikisinde öpmek istiyorum

Seni cok özledim/özlüyorum

My attempt

Sounds good to me

 Dün Yalcinla ilk (defa) tanıştım.

My attempt

 Fine, thanks. I moved to England, I live in Northamton. I just missed Turkey, I have been here for 22 months.. anyway I will return 5-6 years later if God wants. It was nice writing with you, take care of your self, and please kiss the hands of my mother Tulin for me. (probably the other persons`mother) Everything is in the hands of God, with respect from someone who loves you (plural). C a n o

My dear Hasan, I am glad to hear you are fine. My mother sends greetings as well. I hope you life will be very nice. You too take care. Write to me sometimes. With love....

 Ece what`s going on? I am Hasan. I just wanted to say hi, I hope you and your mum are in a good/healthy position. I wish happiness and good health. With respect, Hasan.

I am fine Hasan, thanks. How are you? What are you doing? Take care

Unfortunately you are likely to be right.

My fiance had relatives in the army at that time as well - it was a great day when they could leave 3 months earlier

My fiance finishes in November.. so we may have a chance

August sounds much better. He has already started to count when he will come home then - but I am afraid he will be dissappointed as well.

It`s true barba_mama You are 100 % right. The rumour come and go every year, but it suddenly felt a bit more serious now.... I believe my hope is so strong that I could believe in anything

Thank you so much gokuyum. You are really a kind person

I would gladly hire you as my personal translator

I wish you a great evening - I am very grateful for your help.

Anyone?

Thanks

What do you think? Is it something that will happen in near future or just "talk" as it has always been?

What does this article say for instance?

http://www.haber01.com/GONUL_--ASKERLIK-12-AYA-DUSUYOR%E2%80%8E-1758.html

I have just been talking with my fiance who is serving his armyduty now and there are (again) rumours that they will reduce the length of armyservice in near future, from 15 to 12 months. This time they heard it from their general, and it was supposed to happened in May on Mothers day.

Anyone updated on this subject? What does media say?

Thanks

 If God wants your dream will come true. (Let`s hope your dream will come true).

Anyone?

(It`s 1 page )

I would say you are absolutely right And I believe it to be disrespectful in Turkey as well.

A gift is a gift.

Good luck.

Never heard of that. The gold belongs to the girl/woman as far as I know

I feel a loss
I feel a deep dark emptiness within my soul

I feel a loss
A hollow, lonely aching in my heart that no one can fill

Though I know this feeling is only temporary
I once looked into this abyss many years ago

But then I felt the loss to be permanent
Irreversible decisions made by hasty minds that ignored their hearts

Anguish and profound sorrow would be the emotions of the day
The day that would last months and then years

Lost and alone I would stumble through life looking to replace you
Looking to replace the only love that had ever touched my very soul

I would never succeed, never find that love again
For we were created only for each other

Only we knew how to comfort and care for one another
Only we knew how to love and bond with one another

Nothing compares or is even comparable
We found each other again and the healing has begun

But I feel a loss
Your life has taken you to the other side of the world from me

While I stand in the cold breeze
Gazing at a night canvass speckled with glimmering stars

You are alone in a house, in a town far away
I am alone in our bed buried deep in the blankets

Oh how I long to smell your sweet scent upon my blankets as I retire
How I miss your arms around me and your soft breath upon my cheek

I yearn to feel our hearts beating together once more
Like two lonely doves that found each other in the darkest of nights

Though I know that we share our unique connection
The bond that can never be broken despite the distance between us

I still feel a loss
I can never explain how much I miss you or how lost I feel right now

Only by returning to your arms will this pain cease
Only in your arms do I feel safe, warm and loved

I cannot go on without your love to light my way
I cannot go on without your strength to carry me through the darkness

Only 6 more months
6 more months until we unite once more

6 more months
Then I will feel a loss no more

Thank you so much Scalpel I really appreciate your help.

I wish you a wonderful day

Thank you so much gokuyum

You are the sun to me
Because you brighten my day
You are the moon to me
Because you light my way
You are the sea to me
Because your love is endless
You are a map to me
Because you brought me to happiness
You are a book to me
Because we are the story
You are a tree to me
Because you support me fully
You are keys to me
Because you set me free
You are air to me
Because you surround and hold me
You are a glove to me
Because you fit me like one
You are the earth to me
Because you are my foundation
You are water to me
Because you keep me living
You are food to me
Because you satisfy me so
You are the wind to me
Because you encourage to keep going
You are my love to me
Because to you I am dear
You are a tissue to me
Because you wipe away my tears
You are a teddy to me
Because you comfort me like it.
You are a Blanket to me
Because you make me warm
You are a song to me
Because you bring me joy
You are the stars to me
Because your love cannot be counted
You are my heart to me
Because you own it all

Our love is like a lovely bridge
Between your heart and mine
A bridge we´ve built down through the years
Just to our own design.It´s based on happy memories
Of the good times that we´ve known
The hopes and dreams we two have shared
The thoughtfulness you´ve shown.

It´s stronger now than ever
For its grown with every smile
And every act of kindness
That makes life seem more worthwhile.

And now I know that, if you´re near
Or if we´re miles apart
Our love still unites us
With a bridge from heart to heart.

I guess I have to bump this thread up again as I can`t reach the translator...

I have a letter I need to have translated from English to Turkish. If anyone can help, please leave a message or send me a PM

Thanks!

That was quick gokuyum. As always you help me out. I am forever grateful

Your kind help is much appreciated.

I wish you a beautiful day!

Why Marriage?

 Because to the depths of me, I long to love one person,
With all my heart, my soul, my mind, my body...

Because I need a forever friend to trust with the intimacies of me,
Who won´t hold them against me,
Who loves me when I´m unlikable,
Who sees the small child in me, and
Who looks for the divine potential of me...

Because I need to cuddle in the warmth of the night
With someone who thanks God for me,
With someone I feel blessed to hold...

Because marriage means opportunity
To grow in love in friendship...

Because marriage is a discipline
To be added to a list of achievements...

Because marriages do not fail, people fail
When they enter into marriage
Expecting another to make them whole...

Because, knowing this,
I promise myself to take full responsibility
For my spiritual, mental and physical wholeness
I create me, I take half of the responsibility for my marriage
Together we create our marriage...

Because of this understanding
The possibilities are limitless.

Thank youuuuuu You`re a true blessing.

I wonder if I dreamed of you-

if you would appear?

To make my nights full of love,

and always hold me near.

I wonder if I thought of you-

if you would feel it in your soul?

Like two spirits in the universe,

who always seem to know.

Even if the stars went black

and the sun were to shine no more.

They could find their way to each other,

no matter how far the shore.

Safely in each other´s arms, 

to bid the rest of time.

Finding Eternal Love

so many seek to find.

Caring for each other

through the worst of storms.

Leaning on the arms of love

and never need anymore.

This is how I feel for you,

I´ve known it all along.

You are my one true love

My world.. My heart.. My soul!

Thanks again Gokuyum It looks great! Well done to you.

Your help is much appreciated.

I wish you a great day.

ALWAYS AND FOREVER

As I write, I´ll sing this song

for the greatest love I´ve ever known.

To my heart, you have the only key,

I beg of you, never set me free.

I prayed to God for a love so true

now, I, realize He already knew. 

In time my prayer WAS answered, 

the most wonderful man

HE BLESSED ME WITH YOU.

What we share feels so right

to say I love you every night.

Wonderful moments shared,

precious memories, still tell me you care.

I see your shadow,

as I lay myself to sleep.

Dreams of you, oh so sweet

in my heart, I will keep.

Look into my heart, my life.

Tell me, what do you see?

can you feel the need, the want, as I

to be your wife, you my husband.

Much joy and happiness you´ve brought me.

If I had life to live again, I´d want to with you,

my lover, my best friend.

Always and Forever, I´ll love you till the end

Gokuyum thank you so much - you are an angel

I wish you a wonderful evening. Thanks for all your effort.

Kendine iyi bak!

The vows I take will be forever.
I´ll love you all my life.
There´s no part way, no holding back
Once we are man and wife.

The choice is made, and now I swim
In a far different sea,
The shores of which are bright green hills
Raised up for you and me.

Our love is like a mountainside
Awash in lovely flowers:
It is our home, our solid rock,
Where all bright things are ours.

And though of need we often must
Spend our days apart,
Our love will always be with us,
Held within the heart.

I feel it now, so strong and free,
So part of every breath
That it must live--I swear it will!--
Even after death.

I see

Thank you so much - I wish you a nice evening

Thanks for all your help on this forum

It could be poetic if it is not too much work for you

Everlasting Love

What is it about you?

That makes my stomach turn

My heart beat fast

My mouth curl

Is it your beautiful smile?

Your sexy lips

The sweetness of your voice

Or just what whisper me

The many things we had and shared

The sunsets

The candlelight dinners

Our passion and love

The ways we talked and laughed

Were only dreams before we met

Now turned into reality

How I wish this will last for eternity

Thank you so much gokuyum That was very kind of you.

Why I love you;

I love you for so many reasons

Big and small

And all of them are wonderful.

I love you for all the special qualities

That make you one of a kind...

The only one in the world for me.

I love you for the things you do

That bring such special meaning to my life

I love you for the silent times

When your eyes and arms tell me all I want to know.

I love you

Just because I do

Because now

In the deepest part of my heart

A place where there was nothing before

There is love.

I don`t have time before tomorrow neither, but if you have not started maybe I can have a look at it

I liked the text though.

You were faster than me gokuyum I am sorry I did not see yours. Well done.

 I will start and give it a try

ÇOCUKLUĞUMUZDA...

Bizim çocukluğumuzda annelerimiz çalışmazdı.
Okuldan eve geldiğimde boynumdaki anahtarla kapıyı hiç açmadım.
Hatta Babanım bile anahtarı yoktu.
Annem evimizin bir parçası gibiydi, hep evdeydi.
Her yere birlikte giderdik, zaten öyle çok da gidilecek bir yer yoktu ki.....

In our childhood...

In our childhood our mothers couldt not work

 I  never opened the door with the key that was around my neck when I came home from school

Even my dad did not have a key.

My mother was like a piece of our home, she was always at home.

We would go everywhere together, in fact there was not that many places to go to.

Our biggest entertainment was to play in the streets.

In other words to play in the street was like a concept.

We could not meet up in cafes or shopping-malls

We would go to school with our friends, we would walk back playing, and bouncing.

Check out Hurriyet emlak - they normally have a huge selection of houses for rent/sale. Normally also a lot cheaper than the typical holiday-lettings, as you are renting it for a year.

Good luck

That would change the meaning.

I think it would be something like; will you answer/reply?

Cevap verirsen

My attempt

dizlerin nasil? hâlâ ağrıyor mu?

My attempt

Üzgünüm/özür dilerim, seninle tartışmak istemiyorum.

My attempt

Lan is slang -  friends (boys) sometimes call each other by that name.

ÇOK sağol Dilliduduk That was great.

I wish you a wonderful day.

Thank you Uzun Hava

Can anyone confirm this? And is anyone able to translate the rest?
I would like to send the birthdaycard soon.

Spritzer these comments really annoys me.

What do you know about fence sitting, what do you know about what I do or not?

How do you know he does not get recognition? If that really bothers you, I can assure you he gets plenty of it - and definately deserves it

(....and if you believe it`s just about fencesitting to wait for your fiance for 15 months you are 100% wrong. (The same goes for his family, it`s not only about living as usual, sitting and waiting).  If you haven`t been in that situation I can tell you that his life reflects you more than anyone can understand - and that your new life is filled with anger, tears, stress, worries and suddenly becoming a psychologist.)

No I am not asking for recognition, only a translation.

I am sorry for my long answer, but it really bothers me when people know nothing and have so much to say.

If it`s so boring, move on to the next post There are people and lives behind each nickname.

Dilliduluk: I believe you are right

Bump bump

1. Kisses and congratulations to the sweet child on his first, big birthdayparty. (a 1 year old).

2. Happy Birthday "name" on this special day. We wish you a great day and many more years to come. We hope to see you soon. Unfortunately we could not celebrate with you this year, but you are all in our thoughts. Greetings to mum and dad as well. We miss you all.

Love from "name" and "name"

(If there is anything else that I should say to the birthdaychild, please feel free to add it )

Bırakamam - I can`t leave you. But you can sometimes translate it as the same meaning I guess.

You are right girls

Bırakmayacagım - I will not leave.

I`ll really appreciate that

Anyone?
