Turkish original lyrics:
Kum gibi
Martilar aglardi copluklerde
Biz seninle gulusurduk
Sehirlere bombalar yagardi her gece
Biz durmadan sevisirdik
Acimasiz olma simdi bu kadar
Dun gibi dun gibi cekip gitme
Birak da sarilayim ayaklarina
Kum gibi kum gibi ezip gecme
Sonbahar damlardi damlarimiza
Biz seninle sararirdik
Aydinlansin diye su kirli yuzler
Biz durmadan savasirdik
Acimasiz olma simdi bu kadar
Dun gibi dun gibi cekip gitme
Birak da sarilayim ayaklarina
Kum gibi kum gibi ezip gecme
English translate lyrics:
LIKE SAND
The gulls used to cry in the garbage dump.
We were smiling with you.
The bombs used to drop in the city every night.
We used to make love without stopping.
Now don't be so cruel.
Don't go away like yesterday, yesterday.
Let me hug, let me be wrapped around your feet.
Don't crush(mash) me like sand.
The fall(autumn) used to drip on our drop.
We used to turn yellow with you
in order to illuminate(clean) these dirty faces.
We used to fight without stopping.
