A Bu Hayat
Bir yarim vardı
Ayırdılar bizi
Gözyaşımı silip
Avuttular bizi aaa aaa
Bir kere sevdim diye
Pişman ettiler bizi
Güldürmediler ama
Ağlattılar bizi
Böyle oldu şimdi
Sensizlik ömür boyu
Sonsuz çile
A bu hayat böyle
Dikenli yollarda
Büyüttüler bizi
Gül yataklarda
Yatırmadılar bizi aaa aaa
Zavallı egoistler
Çekemediler bizi
Bir kenara geçip
Konuştular bizi
Böyle oldu şimdi
The door it opened slowly
My father he came in
I was nine years old
And he stood so tall above me
Blue eyes they were shining
And his voice was very cold
Said I've had a vision
And you know I'm strong and holy
I must do what I've been told
So we started up the mountain
I was running he was walking
And his axe was made of gold
Well the trees they got much smaller
The lake a lady's mirror
We stopped to drink some wine
Then he threw the bottle over
Broke a minute later
And he put his hand on mine
Thought I saw an eagle
But it might have been a vulture
I never could decide
Then my father built an altar
He looked once behind his shoulder
He knew I would not hide
You who build the altars now
To sacrifice these children
You must not do it anymore
A scheme is not a vision
You never have been tempted
By a demon or a god
You who stand above them now
Your hatchets blunt and bloody
You were not there before
When I lay upon a mountain
And my father's hand was trembling
With the beauty of the word
And if you call me brother now
Forgive me if I inquire
Just according to whose plan
When it all comes down to dust
I will kill you if I must
I will help you if I can
When it all comes down to dust
I will help you if I must
I will kill you if I can
Have mercy on our uniform
Man of peace or man of war
The peacock spreads his fan
