H02 - Zaman (The Time) Şiiri - Tahir Güngör

THE TIME

Rarely is in use mostly in waist,
As slow, fast and running paced,
In none of the seasons based,
......................Keeps going the time.

Neither with you and nor with us,
By itself, without a vehicle or a bus,
Quiet, no noise and no fuss,
......................Keeps passing the time.

Say, something is really wrong,
A known case or a rushing bang,
A huge solid stone like in hang,
......................Keeps not moving the time.

In a happy occasion or festival,
Joy and fun, all are best of all,
Something is like at urgent call,
......................Keeps fast running the time.

As a month, as a day or as an hour,
Like missed and an unpicked flower,
A rare chance, may be again, never,
......................Keeps escaping the time.

For young, days are short but years,
For me, days are long but years,
Begging to have more, many are in tears,
......................Keeps flying away the time.

Without a hello and without a hi,
Not giving a chance to ask why,
As a shocking surprise, standing by,
......................Comes in, telling it is the time.

ZAMAN

Bazen dolu çoğu boşa,
Yavaş, hızlı koşa koşa,
Aldırmadan yaza kışa,
...............Çeker gider zaman.

Bir başına, bizsiz, sizsiz,
Görülmez gölgesiz izsiz,
Duyulmaz da, dilsiz sessiz,
...............Geçer gider zaman.

Say ki bir şeyler aksadı,
Sanki zorluk da maksadı,
Geçmez, taş olur kaskatı,
...............Uzar gider zaman.

Bir şenlik bir bayram olsa,
Ortam coşku neşe dolsa,
Haz, tat, güzel şeyler bolsa,
...............Koşar gider zaman.

Ay, gün olur, saat olur,
Derilmemiş hasat olur,
Bilinmemiş fırsat olur,
...............Kaçar gider zaman.

Yıl uzun, gün kısa gence,
Gün uzun yıl kısa bence,
‘Yapamadım’ varken onca,
...............Uçar gider zaman

Selam, haber salmadan,
Biraz konuk kalmadan,
Olur olmaz almadan,
...............Gelir çatar zaman.
