Güzel Sözcükler Yağmur Olsun
Sesler kaybolmuyorsa uzayda,
Birikiyorsa bir yerlerde bütün sözcükler
Güzel şeylerden bahsedelim birbirimize
Sevgiden, dostluktan,
Barıştan ve insanlıktan.
Belki o zaman,
Toplanır bütün güzel sözcükler,
Sevgi yağmuru olarak,
Geri dönerler
Yağarlar savaşların üzerine
Söndürürler kalplerdeki kinleri.
Ne kadar çok yağarsa sevgi yağmurlarından
O kadar işlemez olur silahlar
Atalım bütün kötü sözcükleri bir tarafa
Güzel sözcükler üretelim daima
Gökyüzünde toplansın sevgiden bulutlar
Yağsın damla, damla
Bütün dünyamıza
Biriksin damlalar...
Bitsin savaşlar!
May Good Words Be Rains
If sounds don’t vanish in space
And all the words accumulate somewhere else
Let’s day good things to each other
Of friendship, humanity, peace and love.
Then the good words can come together
And turn back like love raining
And drops on war
And put out hatred in hearts.
The more rains of love fall
The less all the guns will work.
We must throw away bad words
And always produce good ones
So love clouds gather together in the sky
And rain, drop by drop on the whole world.
Drops accumulate...
Wars come to an end!
