Li Qamishlo
ji mir gotin li qamişlo
dîlbera te mest û gêj e
li ser êşa vê dîlberê
yek şîretê kes nabêje
gotin bûk e, lê biçûk e
çîroka wê pir dirêj e
destê nojdar brîndar e
bin nenûka tev qirêj e
ji mir gotin li amedê
dîlbera te pir dinale
di çavê min ji hêsra re
şev û rojê sor peyal e
gotin bûk e, lê biçûk e
çîroka wê pir dirêj e
destê nojdar brîndar e
bin nenûka tev qirêj e

In Qamishlo, I was told
Your beloved one is sick
No one is able to
Find a cure for her sickness
They said she is a bride,
they said she is little
Her story is so long
She lies wounded under the dirty fingernails
Dirty fingernails of the doctor
In Diyarbakir, I was told
Your beloved one is shrieking in pain
The tears in my eyes
Are a crimson red fount day and night
They said she is a bride, they said she is little
Her story is so long
She lies wounded under the dirty fingernails
Dirty fingernails of the doctor
