Eartha Kitt - Uskudara Gider Iken текст песни

Uskudar'a gider iken aldy da bir ya?mur 2x
Katibimin setresi uzun, ete?i camur 2x
Katip uykudan uyanmy?, gozleri mahmur 2x
Katip benim, ben katibin, el ne kary?yr?
Katibime setereta palto ne de guzel yara?yr

(Uskudar is a little town in Ystanbul, Turkey,
long the shore of the Bosphorus...
And in the old days, many women, especially those of upper classes,
had young, male secretaries and attendants... Oh, well, that's Turkey!)

Uskudar'a gider iken bir mendil buldum 2x
Mendilimin icine lokum doldurdum 2x


(The fine, Istanbullite lady and her secretary take a trip from
Uskudar in the rain...
And on the way they fall deeply in love.
He's wearing a stiff collar...
In a full dress suit...
She looks at him longingly through her light veil
And casually feeds him candy -turkish delight-
Oh, those Turks!)

Katibimi arar iken yanimda buldum 2x
Katip benim, ben katibin, el ne karisir?
Katibime kolali da gomlek ne guzel yarasir

Katibimi arar iken yanimda buldum 2x
Katip benim, ben katibin, el ne karisir?
Katibime kolali da gomlek ne guzel yarasir 2x
