(Revised version on August 28, 2020)


I lost myself in your multi-colored eyes;
I'll never understand, what my duff heart tries!
Your beautiful eyes seem to be real love spies;
I beg you straight now; stay always by me!
this must be, what my soul as love specifies!
I plead you from heart; be just my lady!

Your beautiful face is special and sameless;
I scream my love to skies; so proud and shameless!
All I feel for you is, honestly, nameless!
My heart would never care if you are fameless!
You'd be on my side; the next thousend years!
Having you in my heart; I'll never have fears!



From my voice in third languages:


Sâdettin Kaynak
TR: "Noktadır benleri"

Türkçe güfteDE: "Endlose Gala mit Dir"

Songtext in Deutsch



My first songtext contained musicological failures. So I tried to revise it.

The old (false) lyrics you can read below.

Nowthan today (on August 28, 2020), I recorded and published the new version.

I changed those rows:

(Old)     I will never understand what my heart tries!
(New)   I'll never understand, what my duff heart tries!

(Old)     I scream my love to the skies proud and shameless!
(New)   I scream my love to skies; so proud and shameless!

(Old)     All I feel for you is more than love; it's nameless!
(New)   All I feel for you is, honestly, nameless!



Here the original songtext:



Elâ gözlerine, kurbân olduğum!
Yüzüne bakmaya, doyamadım ben!
"İbret için gelmiş," derler, "cihâna!"
Noktadır benlerin; sayamadım ben.
Ayamadım ben; doyamadım ben.
Noktadır benlerin; sayamadım ben.

Aşkın ateşidir, sînemi yakan!
Lûtfuna erer mi, cevrini çeken?
Kollarını, boynuma dolamış iken,
seni öpmelere, kıyamadım ben!
Ayamadım ben; doyamadım ben.
Seni öpmelere, kıyamadım ben!



(Old version)

I lost myself in your multi-colored eyes;
I will never understand what my heart tries!
Your beautiful eyes seem to be real love spies;
this must be what my soul as love specifies!
I beg you straight now; stay always by me!
I plead you from whole heart; be just my lady!

Your beautiful face is special and sameless;
I scream my love to the skies proud and shameless!
All I feel for you is more than love; it's nameless!
My heart would never care if you are fameless!
You'd be on my side; the next thousend years!
Having you in my heart; I'll never have fears!
