Kayıp Şehir - Sezen Aksu

Ardımızda ne hayatlar bıraktık

Kaybolmamak için kayıp şehirde

Bu yaban şehir şefkatine sığındık

Hep yabancı kaldık kayıp şehirde

Lodos vurgunu balıklar gibiyiz

Bir şehir usulca kayarmış denize

Gurbette bu şehirmiş sıla da

İstanbul yokmuş meğer bundan başka

Hasret de buradaymış, vuslatta

İstanbul yokmuş bundan başka

İstanbul yokmuş bundan başka

Meğer ayna da buradaymış anahtarda

Hasret de buradaymış, vuslatta

İstanbul yokmuş bundan başka

İstanbul yokmuş bundan başka

Meğer ayna da buradaymış anahtarda

İnce saz değil, hayır, ince sızı bu

Şoparın kemanından bir aşk mektubu

Ince saz değil, hayır, ince sızı bu

Şoparın kemanından bir aşk mektubu

Hasret de buradaymış, vuslatta

İstanbul yokmuş bundan başka

İstanbul yokmuş bundan başka

Meğer ayna da buradaymış anahtarda

Hasret de buradaymış, vuslatta

İstanbul yokmuş bundan başka

İstanbul yokmuş bundan başka

Meğer ayna da buradaymış anahtarda

What lives have we left behind

In the lost city so as not to get lost

We took refuge in this wild city compassion

We were always strangers in the lost city

We are like the fishes of the southwestern

A city slipped softly into the sea

This is a city abroad

It turns out that there is no Istanbul other than that.

Longing was also here, at the reunion

There is no Istanbul other than this

There is no Istanbul other than this

Turns out the mirror was also here in the key

Longing was also here, at the reunion

There is no Istanbul other than this

There is no Istanbul other than this

Turns out the mirror was also here in the key

It's not a thin reed, no, it's a thin pang

A love letter from the shopar's violin

It's not thin reed, no, it's thin pain

A love letter from the shopar's violin

Longing was also here, at the reunion

There is no Istanbul other than this

There is no Istanbul other than this

Turns out the mirror was also here in the key

Longing was also here, at the reunion

There is no Istanbul other than this

There is no Istanbul other than this

Turns out the mirror was also here in the key
