Barış Manço "Cacık" lyrics

Translation to:en

Cacık

Sözüm meclisten dışarı dostlarBugünlerde kendimi hıyar gibi hissediyorumHani dilim dilim doğrasalar beniMarmara Ege Karadeniz ve hatta Akdeniz cacık olur diyorum

Derdim öylesine büyük ki dostlarKırka yarıp yine kırka bölselerVe kırk bostana gübre diye serpselerKırkbin tane ot biter de kırkbin derde deva olur diyorum

Ne oldu bana böyle durup dururkenOğlan aldı başını gitti kız zaten lafımı dinlemezdiDüğmem kopuk paçam sökük oramda buramda çengelli iğnelerBir de çengelli iğne nazar bozar derler

Hanımın çorabı kaçık başında bigudilerKarabaş bile, karabaş bile suratıma bakıp bakıp havlıyorÖğünmek gibi olmasın ama dostlarKendimi hıyar gibi hissediyorum

Hani ince kıyım doğrasalar beni Akdeniz cacık olur diyorumVe hatta Atlas okyanusu ve hatta Hint okyanusuVe hatta hatta Büyük okyanus bile cacık olur diyorumBöyle cacığa rakı mı dayanır

Çivi çiviyi söker derler soğuktan donanı buzla ovarlarBen zaten yanmışım dostlar peki beni fırına mı koysalarZeytin suyuna kuru ekmek böyle gelmiş böyle gidecek

Cacık

Present company excluded, my friends;I feel like a cucumber (feel terrible) these days…I mean, if they finely diced meI say “The Sea of Marmara, the Aegean Sea, the Black Sea,And even the Mediterranean Sea would turn into a ‘Cacik’(1)”.

I have such a big trouble that, my friends;I mean, if they split me into 40 pieces and divided me into 40 pieces againAnd sprinkled me over 40 vegetable gardens as a fertilizerI say “40 thousands kinds of herbs would grow and cure 40 thousands troubles”.

I don’t know what happened to me all of a sudden.My son walked away and my daughter has never listened to me anyways.My button is missing, Hem of my trousers unstitched, I have safety pins here and there…And they say “Safety pin destroys the evil eye”.

My wife’s hosiery has run and she has rollers on her head.Even Karabaş (a sheep-dog), even Karabaş keeps looking at my face and barks at me.In all modesty, my friends;I feel like a cucumber.

I mean, if they finely diced me, I say “the Mediterranean Sea would turn into a ‘cacik.’”I say “And even the Atlantic Ocean and even the Indian OceanAnd even more, the Pacific Ocean would turn into a ‘cacik.’”How could Rakis (2) be enough for such a cacik?

They say “One nail drives out another" and “They scrub a frozen person with ice”I've already burned, my friends, should they put me into an oven?Olive juice with dry bread, it has been always like this and will continue to be like that.
