  KOKU

Akşamların kokusu
Sardunyam
Sabaha karşı
Pembe pembe
Açtım soldum.....!

Gündüzlerin kokusu
Yosun yosun
Gece yarısı
Dalga dalga
Gittim geldim.....!

Bir DÜŞTÜM
Üşüdüm uyandım....!

BANU


SCENT

At night
The scent
Of my geranium
At dawn
Its blush of pink
I blossomed and I faded.....!

By day
The smell of seaweed
At midnight
Wave upon wave
I ebbed and flowed......!

I was a dream
Gone cold
And I awoke....!

BANU
