Yedikule Lyrics

Yedikule

Haber uçtu devlete de beþ yýl yattým hapiste

(The news flew to the goverment, I was in prison for five years)

Yedi düvel zindanýndan beterdir yedikule

(Yedikule (Seven towers - a famous dungeon) is worse than all the other
ones)



Nargilem duman duman ah bayýldým aman aman

(My nargile has smoke on it, ah I love it aman aman)

�stanbul güzel ama sahipleri pek yaman

(�stanbul is beautiful but its owners are very quick-tempered)



Beþ yýl bana yaraþtý da nargilem buna þaþtý

(These five years became me, even my nargile got suprised)

Her gün çizdim usturamla baðlamam doldu taþdý

(I scratched everyday with my razor, my saz was filled with scratches)



Sarma cigaram yanar çekerim aðýr aðýr

(My wrapped cigarette is burning, I'm inhaling it slowly)

Tekkemiz güzel ama haber uçuranlar var

(Our tekke is very beautiful but there are some traitors)



Nargilemin marpucu da gümüþtendir gümüþten

(My nargileh's tube is from silver, silver)

Beþ deðil onbeþ yýl olsa ben vaz geçmem bu iþten

(I won't give it up even if it is fifteen years instead of five)



Nargilem duman duman ah bayýldým aman aman

(My nargile has smoke on it, ah I love it aman aman)

�stanbul güzel ama sahipleri pek yaman

(�stanbul is beautiful but its owners are very quick-tempered
