Aman Yavaş Aheste
Aman yavaş aheste
Sabırlı derviş murada ermiş
Acelesi olana ağır ol demiş
Aman demiş aheste
Aman yavaş aheste
Tiz-i reftar olanın payine dağmen dolaşır
Erişir menzil-i maksuda aheste giden
Aheste çek kürekleri aheste
Perdedari mikoned der kasr-ı Kayzer ankebut,
Bum nevbet mizedend der târem-i Efrâsiyâb.
Aman yavaş aheste
Söz gümüşse sükut altınmış
Demek ki susmak daha kıymetli
Sessiz sakin durmak varken
Konuşup yorulana bilmem ne demeli
Aman yavaş aheste
Slowly, Gently
Slowly, gently
The patient dervish has reached his goal
He said to those in a hurry, take it slow
Slowly, he said, gently
Slowly, gently
The one who rushes will stumble and fall
The one who takes it slow will reach their destination
Slowly, row the oars, slowly
The curtain rises in the palace of the spider,
This moment echoes in the halls of Efrasyab.
Slowly, gently
If words are silver, silence is gold
So it seems that keeping quiet is more valuable
When you can stay calm and still
What’s there to say that would tire you out?
Slowly, gently
