Kilim (song)

Kilim is a song by a Turkish artist

Fatih Kısaparmak.

One weaves a rug with a promise to the one they love.
Sevdigine sözü olan bir kilim dokur

Only those who understand the language of rugs can read
Kilimin dilinden ancak anlayan okur

I gave you my secrets, I gave you my love
Sırlarımı verdim sana sevgimi verdim

I turned this heart of mine to a rug and spread it on your path
Su gönlümü kilim yaptım yoluna serdim

​

They locked my tongue because they said it was a shame and a sin
Ayıptır günahtır diye kilit vurdular dilime

I wove love into the rug, do you understand?
Askı dokudum kilime anlıyor musun

I wasn't satisfied, I sang a song, I'm tired of my being
Yetinmedim türkü yaktım gayrı bu canımdan bıktım

I thought I was going to be yours, are you listening?
Hani senin olacaktım dinliyor musun

​

Kilim is the mirror of the heart, the voice of the heart
Kilim kalbin aynasıdır gönlün sesidir

Each embroidery is an expression of a feeling
Her nakısı bir duygunun ifadesidir

Kilim is an invitation to lovers, an invitation to love
Kilim sevgiliye çagrı aska davettir

Some colors are complaints, some are longings
Kimi renkler sikayettir kimi hasrettir
 

I wove rugs on this heart's loom
Ben su gönül tezgahında kilim dokudum

I read about love in the dervish lodge of the saints
Erenlerin dergahında askı okudum

In our tradition, kilim means knowledge.
Töremizde kilim demek ilim demektir

Kilim is love, longing, trouble, desire
Kilim sevdadır özlemdir derttir istektir
