Milyonlarca Kuştuk - Candan Ercetin

Her kim ki kıskançlık gölünde yüzer

Bilsin ki ulaşamaz o kaf dağına

Bülbül ki aşk denizlerinde gezer

Uçamaz ki başka güllerin narına

Her kim ki bencillik dağına tırmanır

Bilsin ki kaderi yalnız kalmaktır

Her kim ki hırs ovalarında saklanır

Avladım zanneder ama kendi avlanır

Her kim ki hakikat ormanında bekler

Bilsin ki hatasız çıkamaz yarına

Her kim ki inkar limanında demirler

Eremez hiçbir zaman gönlünün sırrına

Her kim ki ayrılık vadisinde durur

Bilsin ki ne ararsa kendinde bulur

Biz milyonlarca kuştuk kaf dağına kanat açtık

Acı çektik yaralandık bilmiyorduk aldandık

Kimimiz yollarda kaldık dünya malına kandık

Kimimiz sebat ettik yedi vadiyi aştık

Gönül bu durmaz uçar zaman mekan tanımaz

Uzun yol yolcusudur bulmadan aşkı durmaz

Gönül bu durmaz uçar uzak yakın tanımaz

Gönül yol yorgunudur yanmadan huzur bulmaz

Gönül durma uç yorulma uç yılma uç

Whoever swims in the lake of envy

He should know that he cannot reach the mountain of kaf

Nightingale that wanders in the seas of love

It cannot fly to the pomegranate of other roses

Whoever climbs the mountain of selfishness

Let him know that his destiny is to be alone

Whoever hides in the plains of greed

He thinks he hunted, but he hunts himself

Whoever waits in the forest of truth

Let him know that he can't come out without mistakes

Whoever moors in the port of denial

He can never reach the secret of his heart

Whoever stands in the valley of separation

Let him know that whatever he searches, he finds in himself.

We were millions of birds, we spread wings to the mountain of kaf

We suffered, we hurt, we didn't know, we were deceived

Some of us stayed on the roads, we fell for the world's goods

Some of us persevered and crossed seven valleys

The heart does not stop, it flies, time knows no place

He is a long way traveler, his love does not stop until he finds it

The heart flies as soon as it stops, it doesn't know far and close

The heart is tired of the road, it does not find peace without burning

Don't stop, don't get tired, fly, don't get tired
