Ahmet Kaya "Cinayet Saati" lyrics

Translation to:enru

Cinayet Saati

Haliç'te bir vapuru vurdular dört kişiDemirlemişti eli kolu bağlıydı ağlıyorduDört bıçak çekip vurdular dört kişiYemyeşil bir ay gökte dağılıyordu

Deli Cafer, İsmail, Tayfur ve ŞaşıMaktulün onbeş yıllık arkadaşıÜç kamarot öteki ahçıbaşıDört bıçak çekip vurdular dört kişi

Cinayeti kör bir kayıkçı gördüBen gördüm kulaklarım gördüVapur kudurdu kuduz gibi böğürdüHiç biriniz orada yoktunuz

Demirlemişti eli kolu bağlıydı ağlıyorduOnüç damla gözyaşı saydımAlllahına kitabına sövüp saydımŞafak nabız gibi atıyorduSarhoşdum kasımpaşa'daydım

Hiç biriniz orada yoktunuzHaliç'te bir vapuru vurdular dört kişiPolis katilleri arıyorduDeli Cafer, İsmail, Tayfur ve Şaşı

Üzerime yüklediler bu işiSarhoşdum kasımpaşa'daydımVapuru onlar vurdu ben vurmadımCinayeti kör bir kayıkçı gördüBen vursam kendimi vuracaktım.

Murder hour

Four men struck a steamboat in the golden hornAnchored, her hands and legs were tied, she was cryingThey took out four knives and stabbed her, four menA deep green moon was crumbling in the sky

Cafer the Mad, Ismail, Tayfur and the Cross-eyeFriends of the victim for fifteen yearsThree were stewards, the other was the chefThey took out four knives and stabbed her, four men

A blind boatman saw the murderI saw it, my ears saw itThe steamboat went wild, bellowed like a rabid (dog)None of you were there

Anchored, her hands and legs were tied, she was cryingI counted thirteen teardrops of hersI prayed to God repeatedly, at the bookThe dawn was throbbing like a pulseI was drunk, I was at KasımpaşaNone of you were there

Four men struck a steamboat in the golden hornThe police were searching for the murderersCafer the Mad, Ismail, Tayfur and the Cross-eyeThey cast the blame on meI was drunk, I was at KasımpaşaThey struck the steamboat, not meA blind boatman saw the murder

If I struck it, I'll strike myself
