Tarkan - Şeytan Azapta (The Devil's in Torment)
Album: Acayipsin (You're so Strange)

Sabah işe giderken
Her zamanki gibi erken
Karbondioksit, monoksit
Ve trafik beni yerken

Birileri kaldırımda yaya
Birileri biniyor arabaya
Monotoni, megamoni
Diye diye vardım Galata'ya

Derken, bir gördüm bir gördüm seni
Ve anında mahvettin dengemi, ohh

Öylece kalakaldım
Eyvahlar olsun yandım
Ya birinin ahı tuttu
Büyüye bile inandım

Bir gördüm bir gördüm seni
Ve anında mahvettin dengemi, ohh

O an olan oldu
O çapkın rüzgar uçurdu eteklerini
Benim suçum yok o bozdu
Bütün iyi niyetlerimi

(Repeat)
Şeytan azapta.

Şaka maka derken halim berbat
Kaderime küstüm iyice heyhat
Unuttum dünya halini
Derdine düştüm feryat feryat

Bir gördüm bir gördüm seni
Ve anında mahvettin dengemi, ohh

O an olan oldu
O çapkın rüzgar uçurdu eteklerini
Benim suçum yok o bozdu
Bütün iyi niyetlerimi

O an olan oldu
O çapkın rüzgar uçurdu eteklerini
Benim suçum yok o bozdu
Bütün iyi niyetlerimi

(Repeat)
Şeytan azapta.

As I was going to work in the morning,
Early as always,
Carbon dioxide, monoxide,
And the traffic eating me up.

Some people on the sidewalk,
Some getting into cars,
Monotone, megamoni,*
Like so I arrived at Galata.**

Meanwhile, I saw you, oh I saw you,
And instantly you destroyed my balance, ohh.

I was struck there and then.
All the troubles began, I burned.
Someone held their breath.
I even believed in witchcraft.

I saw you, oh I saw you,
And instantly you destroyed my balance, ohh.

What happened then happened.
That naughty wind blew your skirts up.
I had no fault in it, believe me,
It ruined all my good intentions.

(Repeat)
The devil's in torment.

I said it was a joke, but my state was dreadful.
I cursed my fate repeatedly, alas!
I forgot the rest of the world completely.
I fell into your troubles with cries.

I saw you, oh I saw you,
And instantly you destroyed my balance, ohh.

What happened then happened.
That naughty wind blew your skirts up.
I had no fault in it, believe me,
It ruined all my good intentions.

What happened then happened.
That naughty wind blew your skirts up.
I had no fault in it, believe me,
It ruined all my good intentions.

(Repeat)
The devil's in torment.
