Pencereden Kuş Uçtu (Ben Bir Garip Kuş İdim) Lyrics
Alaturka Records
Lyrics
ben bir garip kus idim
dalina konmus idim
ben bir garip kus idim
kapina dusmus idim
neden bana kışt! dedin
ben senin olmuş idim
niçin de bana kışt! dedin
ben sana gelmiş idim!
pencereden kuş uçtu
yandı yurek tutuştu
bizim boyle olmamiza
eller sebep oldu
bizim de boyle ayriliga eller sebep oldu
gidin bulutlar gidin
yarime selam edin
yarim uykuda ise
uykusun haram edin
o yar uykuda ise
uykusun haram edin
