Translated Lyrics

Herkes hayrandı o gülüşüne
Bende bir başka
Kuşlar uçardı sıcak iklimlere
Vurdum tek taşla

Everyone was lover of your smile
But I
Birds would fly to hot climates
I hit at once

Bu güzel masallarla
Kimleri kandırdın sen
Beni çocuk mu sandın?

Whose you tricked with
Those beautiful stories
Did you think I was a child?

Yeter seni çok sevdim
Yeter çok çalıştım
Yeter artık kazanıp
Kaybetmekten of sıkıldım

Enough, I loved you so much
Enough, I tried so hard
Enough, I am bored of
Winning and losing

Yeter sana inandım
Yeter çok yanıldım
Yeter artık utanıp
Yıkıl karşımdan sıkıldım senden

Enough, I believed you
Enough, I so slipped up
Enough, get a shame and
Begone, I am bored of you

Attın doksanda bana golünü
Vazgeçtim sanma
Dört dörtlük yaptın bana rolünü
Farkettim ama

You scored a goal at 90th
Don't think I gave up
You roled slap-up to me
I realized but

Bu güzel masallarla
Kimleri kandırdın sen
Beni çocuk mu sandın?

Whose you tricked with
Those beautiful stories
Did you think I was a child?

Yeter seni çok sevdim
Yeter çok çalıştım
Yeter artık kazanıp
Kaybetmekten of sıkıldım

Enough, I loved you so much
Enough, I tried so hard
Enough, I am bored of
Winning and losing

Yeter sana inandım
Yeter çok yanıldım
Yeter artık utanıp
Yıkıl karşımdan sıkıldım senden

Enough, I believed you
Enough, I so slipped up
Enough, get a shame and
Begone, I am bored of you

I'm interested with the group history, what kind of betrayal are you talking about?

Anyways, the song is damn catchy

Re: ISTANBUL 17 - Hepsi - Yeter

Anyway, we did it good in semi votes. Thanks for supports

I should direct you to Happiness about it. He should've known well

Re: ISTANBUL 17 - Hepsi - Yeter

Gülçin had some personal problems about her private and she said to others that she is in NYC. But other girls learnt by TV magazine program that she was actually in İstanbul and she has a relationship. Others never forgive her.

Lyrics

Something calling from deep inside me,
A voice I knew but I could not hear.
For so long I have tried to hide me,
Couldn't see that you were so near.
You know me,
You show me,
Everything that I really am and,
You see me,
you gave me strength enough to say.

Here I am
Ready for your love
Here I am
I'll never run away
I have made my connection,
Seen my reflection in you.
So here I am.
Living under a lonely shadow,
I have seen from the other side.
Hope will shine from a single candle,
Leaving all of the pain behind

It's our way,
A new day,
Living in the here and now and,
Believing,
I'm feeling strong enough to say.

Here I am
Ready for your love
Here I am
I'll never run away
I have made my connection,
Seen my reflection in you.
So here I am.

Never leave me,
You complete me.
I finally know who I love,
I love you
I love you
Here I am
Here I am
Here I am
Ready for you love
Here I am
I'll never run away
I have made my connection,
Seen my reflection in you,
Finally here I am.
Here I am, I am.
I have made my connection,
Seen my reflection in you,
So here I am.

I love so much this singer! She seems a very good person! Argentina gave her 12 with Turkey for her song "Istanbul"!

I am expecting same support for Here I am too (No, I'm kidding )
Thank you

I didn't know İstanbul has been sent too. Do you know how it ended up with results?

Re: ISTANBUL 18 | SERTAB ERENER - HERE I AM

Oh this is a super song! Much better than her ESC song and it would be a quite likely 12 pointer if I were taking part in this edition
