Title

Since losing you and your love

Translation

English

Translated by

kafetzou

Target language: English

Since losing you and your love
Not much has changed with me
I still write to you and your love
With crazy thoughts in my head
I think of you and cry.

There's no change, I'm like I used to be
My gaze is fearful, dark, and timid
My eyes have been offended by laughing for a long time
Living is devoid of pleasure, I cry
I pick the flowers and and throw them away one by one
Now there is a dark grave in front of me
I'm digging it without getting bored or tired of it.

	handyy Number of messages: 2118	Yep, everything is OK now (except from "my gaze": in the Turkish text it says "bakÄ±ÅŸlarÄ±m", so it is better to put it in plural form, I think.)

	kafetzou Number of messages: 7963	That doesn't really work in English. I've never heard of "gazes".

	handyy Number of messages: 2118	What about "glances" ?

	kafetzou Number of messages: 7963	A "glance" is when you look at something briefly, as in "to glance over a report". There is no really good translation for "bakÄ±ÅŸ" - we have the same problem in Greek, as there's a word (Î²Î»ÎÎ¼Î¼Î±) that means the exact same thing, and often turns up in poems and songs, but there's no English equivalent.
