YEŞİLÖZ'ÜM BENİM

MY YEŞİLÖZ

Zonguldak – Devrek – Yeşilöz

[Giriş – Duygulu Bağlama] · Intro – Emotional Bağlama

[1. Kıta] · Verse 1

Zonguldak'ın dağlarında,

In the mountains of Zonguldak,

Devrek'imin bağlarında,

In the vineyards of my Devrek,

Bir güzel köy var uzakta,

There's a beautiful village far away,

Yeşilöz var aklımda.

Yeşilöz is on my mind.

Sabah olur güneş doğar,

Morning comes, the sun rises,

Yeşil dağlar selam yollar,

Green mountains send greetings,

Köyüm benim canım benim,

My village, my dear one,

Sana hasret kalır yollar.

The roads long for you.

[Nakarat – Güçlü ve Coşkulu] · Chorus – Strong and Enthusiastic

Yeşilöz'üm, Yeşilöz'üm,

My Yeşilöz, my Yeşilöz,

Sensin benim güzel köyüm,

You are my beautiful village,

Devrek'imin gül bahçesi,

The rose garden of my Devrek,

Sana bağlı benim gönlüm!

My heart is tied to you!

Hey hey, Yeşilöz hey!

Güzelliğine doyum olmaz hey!

Your beauty is insatiable, hey!

Zonguldak'tan ses verelim,

Let's call out from Zonguldak,

Yeşilöz'ü hep sevelim!

Let's always love Yeşilöz!

[2. Kıta] · Verse 2

Köy yolları taşlı olur,

Village roads are stony,

Gönül gider, yaşlı olur,

The heart goes, it gets old,

Gurbet elde yaşayanın,

For those living abroad,

Memleketi düşü olur.

Their homeland is a dream.

Bir yanımda dostlarım var,

On one side, I have my friends,

Bir yanımda anılar var,

On one side, I have memories,

Yeşilöz'ün her köşesinde,

In every corner of Yeşilöz,

Bıraktığım hatıralar.

Memories I left behind.

[Nakarat – Daha Hareketli] · Chorus – More Lively

Yeşilöz'üm, Yeşilöz'üm,

My Yeşilöz, my Yeşilöz,

Sensin benim güzel köyüm,

You are my beautiful village,

Devrek'imin gül bahçesi,

The rose garden of my Devrek,

Sana bağlı benim gönlüm!

My heart is tied to you!

Hey hey, Yeşilöz hey!

Güzelliğine doyum olmaz hey!

Your beauty is insatiable, hey!

Zonguldak'tan ses verelim,

Let's call out from Zonguldak,

Yeşilöz'ü hep sevelim!

Let's always love Yeşilöz!

[3. Kıta – Duygusal] · Verse 3 – Emotional

Gurbet elde akşam olur,

Evening comes in a foreign land,

İçime bir özlem dolur,

A longing fills me,

Yeşilöz'ün adı geçse,

If the name Yeşilöz is mentioned,

Gözlerime yaşlar dolur.

Tears fill my eyes.

Nerede olsam aklımdasın,

Wherever I am, you are on my mind,

Kalbimin en güzel yanısın,

You are the most beautiful part of my heart,

Devrek'imde Yeşilöz'üm,

My Yeşilöz in my Devrek,

Ömrüm boyunca sevdamsın!

You are my love for life!

[Final – Bağlama ve Koro] · Outro – Bağlama and Choir

Devrek bizim, Zonguldak bizim,

Devrek is ours, Zonguldak is ours,

Yeşilöz'dür sevdamız bizim!

Yeşilöz is our love!

El ele ver, türkü söyle,

Join hands, sing a folk song,

Yeşilöz'üm yaşa böyle!

My Yeşilöz, live like this!

Hey hey, Yeşilöz hey!

Canım köyüm, güzel köyüm hey!

My dear village, my beautiful village hey!
