Lyrics:

[English]

When strangers are coming

...

They come to your house

They kill you all

And say

We're not guilty

Not guilty

Where is your mind?

Humanity cries

You think you are gods

But everyone dies

Don't swallow my soul

Our souls

Yaşlığıma toyalmadım

...

Men bu yerde yaşalmadım

Yaşlığıma toyalmadım

...

Men bu yerde yaşalmadım

We could build a future

...

Where people are free

To live and love

The happiest time

Where is your heart?

Humanity rise

You think you are gods

But everyone dies

Don't swallow my soul

Our souls

Yaşlığıma toyalmadım

...

Men bu yerde yaşalmadım

...

Yaşlığıma toyalmadım

...

Men bu yerde yaşalmadım

...

Yaşlığıma toyalmadım

Men bu yerde yaşalmadım

Yaşlığıma toyalmadım

Vatanima toyalmadım

...
