Tag Archives: saying goodbye to love

December 30, 2015 · 7:00 am

…listening to Sezen Aksu…convinced that all goodbyes should be as gentle

Bir masaldı aslında

Ne yazık sonu yoktu

Bir şarap sofrasında hazin

Kibar bir vedayla son buldu

It was a fairy tale after all

Pity! It had no ending

It ceased to exist at a wine table

With a sorrowful gentle goodbye

~ Own translation from the Turkish original
