ترجمة - تركي-انجليزي - bir beyaz mendil koydun gittin dönerim dedin söz...

Botica, here's my translation from Turkish to English.

CC: Botica

I can only compare the text with the French translation and I noticed a few differences:

5th line: you have waited and stopped whereas the French has not stopped to wait (I think)
8th line: your liver is burning; in French it is I who is burning, my dear; also 'the fact that I loved' is missing or different in the French version
line 15: a morning wind, or one morning, the wind...?
line 17: again, did 'I' stop or not?

If all this is because of differences in the original you took, all good...
Otherwise, of course I don't know whether the mistakes are in the French or the English version so sorry to bother you if it is the French one which should be corrected.

handyy, could you check these please?

Hi

* A white handkerchief, you put it down and left-->You put a white handkerchief down and left

* I'll be back, you said, you promised, sweetheart-->"sweetheart isn't used there. "yaa" means "oh!/ah!"

* Summer came again, I waited and stopped-->Summer came again, I kept on waiting

* Hey come back, come already, for your God...-->Hey come back right now, my love, for God's sake

* My liver is burning--> here "ciÄŸerim" is figurative, so "my soul is burning" would be better

* Your love has stopped, it burns the fact that I loved--> according to "sevdan vuruyor yakiyor sevidigim", it says "your love hits and burns me, sweetheart". according to "Sevdan duruyor, Yakıyor sevdiğim", it says "your love is still here, it is burning me sweetheart".

* It was like I had been touched, I woke up, sweetheart--> I thought you touched me, so I woke up, sweetheart

* My soul trembled, I searched and stopped--> My soul trembled, I kept on looking for (you)

Kafetzou, "bir şeyi yapıp durmak" demek yapılan işe devam etmek demek

--resme bakıp durdum=I kept on looking at the picture.

-- resme baktım ve durdum=I looked at the picture and then stopped. etc.

handyy, thanks so much for your help. Please note that I was translating a slightly different version of the words (see my comment below my translation) - I believe the version that I found is correct - what do you think?

Oh wow - I didn't know "bir şeyi yapıp durmak" - thanks a lot! I will edit accordingly.

I'm not sure why this was validated - it was full of errors!!!

Hi Kafetzou,

This translation was validated because it got plenty and only positive votes.
Don't ask me why our users didn't find any of those mistakes...

I've brought it back to be evaluated.

I googled it, and yes Kafetzou, your version is the correct one.

and in my humble opinion, except some wrong parts (made because of misunderstanding), your translation was correct, so this should be validated.

OK - go for it Lilian.
