Elif Dedim Be Dedim

Elif I Said Be I Said

Elif Dedim Be Dedim

Elif I said oh I said damnElif dedim be dedim aman
Darling, what did I tell you?Yar ben sana ne dedim?
If the bird had a pen, oh damnKuþ kanedi kalem olsa aman
Ah, my problem can't be writtenAh yazýlmaz benim derdim

My Elif was punctuated, oh damnElifim noktalandý aman
My little problem multipliedAz derdim çoklandý
Hurry up, mother, hurry up, father, oh damnYetiþ anam yetiþ bubam aman
Ah, my dowry got packedAh çeyizim bohçalandý
Hurry up, mother, hurry up, father, oh damnYetiþ anam yetiþ bubam aman
Ah, my grave got adornedAh mezarým tahtalandý
