The Road
I'm on a long and narrow road,I walk all day, I walk all night,I cannot tell what is my plight,I walk all day, I walk all night.Soon as I came into the world,That moment I began my fight,I'm in an inn with double gates,I walk all day, I walk all night.I walk in sleep - I find no cause,To linger, whether dark or light,I see the travellers on the road,I walk all day, I walk all night.Forty-nine years upon these roads,On desert plain, on mountain height,In foreign lands I make my way,I walk all day, I walk all night.Sometimes it seems an endless road,The goal is very far from sight,One minute, and the journey's overI walk all day, I walk all night.Veysel does wonder at this state,Lament or laughter, which is right?Still to attain that distant goal,I walk all day, I walk all night.
