Description
The words flow like warm rain - quietly but inevitably penetrating the skin. They contain as much weariness from unspoken words as they do stubborn hope: as if after every winter, morning will still come, and even the heaviest eyes will learn to laugh again. This is not about ‘hang on’ - it's about ‘allow yourself to be’, about the stubborn return of light to where it is dark.
There are no loud promises here, but there is a lot of honesty. Love doesn't always save, but it can hold your hand while the storm passes. In these lines, there is an almost childlike belief that tears give rise not only to sadness, but also to small revolutions, and that brokenness gives rise to a strength that will one day teach you to breathe deeply again.

Lyrics and translation
Original
Güzel gözlerinden akan yaşlar bana dokunuyor.
Sevmek beni derinden artık sana hiç yetmiyor.
Anla zamanla kendine demelisin yeterim diye.
Sen her şeyi olduğu gibi gören derinden hisseden.
Açılımazsın okyanuslara, okyanuslara.
Gözlerimle buluşacak gözlerin.
Zaten gitmediğimi göreceksin.
Gözlerimle buluşacak gözlerin.
Zaten gitmediğimi göreceksin.
Oysa unuttun demeye geldik bu dünyaya.
Güzel ağladığımız doğrudur ama devrim yaparız kahkahamızla.
Gözlerimle buluşacak gözlerin.
Zaten gitmediğimi göreceksin.
Gözlerimle buluşacak gözlerin.
Zaten gitmediğimi göreceksin.
Her gecenin sabahı var.
Kışın güneşi, her gecenin sabahı var.
Umut var, aşk var.
Her an yeniden doğmak var.
English translation
The tears flowing from your beautiful eyes touch me.
Loving me deeply is never enough for you anymore.
Understand that over time you have to say to yourself that I am enough.
You are the one who sees things as they are and feels deeply.
You cannot sail to the oceans, to the oceans.
Your eyes will meet mine.
You'll see that I'm not leaving anyway.
Your eyes will meet mine.
You'll see that I'm not leaving anyway.
However, we came to this world to say that you have forgotten.
It is true that we cry well, but we make a revolution with our laughter.
Your eyes will meet mine.
You'll see that I'm not leaving anyway.
Your eyes will meet mine.
You'll see that I'm not leaving anyway.
Every night has a morning.
There is sun in winter, every night has a morning.
There is hope, there is love.
There is rebirth at every moment.
