Terms of Love, Affection, and Endearment in Turkish and English Love in Summer Bloom, 2008 - with voice recordings -

Let us know if you like these new 'Terms of Endearment' with voice recordings. We'll add more of them if you do...
Gözlerindeki cevaba korkuyorum bakmaya.
(grrz-leh-reen-deh-kee jeh-vah-bih kohr-koo-yoh-room bahk-mah-yah.)
(MP3 Format)
I'm afraid to look at the answer in your eyes.
Gönül hırsızı diyorlar. İnkâr et yeter bana.
(grr-nool hihr-sih-zih dee-yohr-lahr. een-kyar eht yeh-tehr bah-nah.)
(MP3 Format)
They say that you're a thief of hearts. (If you) deny it, that's good enough for me.
Bir tebessüm oldun yüzümde.
(beer teh-behs-soom yoo-zoom-deh.)
(MP3 Format)
You have been the smile upon my face.
This double entendre is for those who like to add a little *spice* to their endearments.
Karanlık gecelerde seni çektim nefes nefes içime.
(kah-rahn-lihk geh-jeh-lehr-deh seh-nee chek-teem neh-feh neh-fehs ee-chee-meh.)
(MP3 Format)
On dark nights I have 'inhaled' you -- and slowly 'breathed' you inside me.
Sevdim seni birtanem, düşünmeden umutsuzca...
(sehv-dim beer-tah-nehm, doo-shoon-meh-den oo-moot-sooz-jah...)
(MP3 Format)
I have loved you, my one-and-only darling without thinking... and without hope (hopelessly).
Join this with other 'Terms of Endearment'...
Söz dinletemedim şu garip gönlüme...
(surrz deen-leh-teh-meh-deem gah-reep gurrn-loo-meh)
(MP3 Format)
My poor heart didn't obey (me)...
When you are overcome with emotion....
Haykırdım defalarca kendime neden neden seviyorum diye!
(hahy-keer-dihm deh-fah-lahr-jah kehn-dee-meh neh-dehn neh-dehn seh-vee-yoh-room dee-yeh)
(MP3 Format)
I've shouted to myself again and again,
saying why, why do I love you!
Yanağımdan düşen iki damla oldun.
(yah-nah-ihm-dahn doo-shehn ee-kee dahm-lah ohl-doon)
(MP3 Format)
You were like two tears falling down my cheeks.
When you're feeling a little exasperated....
Evet özür dilerim...
seni herşeyin üstünde tuttuğum ve çok sevdiğim için!
(eh-veht urr-zoor dee-leh-reem... seh-nee heyr-sheh-yeen oos-toon-deh toot-tuu-um veh choke sehv-dee-eem ee-chin)
(MP3 Format)
Yes, I apologize...
for loving you so much and for placing you above all else!
When 'things' haven't worked out as well as you'd hoped...
Dost Kalalım. (dost kah-lah-lihm)
(MP3 Format)
Let's remain friends.
Çok aşığın var diyorlar. Yalan de, yeter bana. (choke ah-shih-ihn vahr dee-yohr-lahr. Yah-lahn deh, yeh-tehr bana)
(MP3 Format)
They say you have many loves (besides me). (If you) tell me they're lying, that's good enough for me.
Biliyorum, yollarımız ayrı seninle. (bee-lee-yoh-room, yohl-lah-rih-mihz ay-rih seh-neen-leh)
(MP3 Format)
I know that we follow [two] different roads. (I know that we are on separate paths.)
Sende imkansızlığı sevdim. (sehn-deh eem-kahn-sihz-lih-ih seyv-deem)
(MP3 Format)
I've loved the impossibility of you. (I have loved the difficulty of our relationship.)
Hep vardın hayalimde. (hep vahr-dihn hah-yah-lihm-deh)
(MP3 Format)
You have been constantly on my mind.
Bazen mutlu etti tek kelimen. (bah-zehn moot-loo eht-tee tehk keh-lee-mehn)
(MP3 Format)
Sometimes a single (loving) word from you can make me (so very) happy.
Bazen tek kelimenle yıkıldım. (bah-zehn tehk keh-lee-mehn-leh yih-kihl-dihm)
(MP3 Format)
Sometimes a single (cruel) word from you can destroy me completely.
Bir sevda sözü fısılda, hazırım inanmaya. (beer sehv-dah sur-zoo fih-sihl-dah, hah-zih-rim ee-nahn-mah-yah)
(MP3 Format)
Whisper words of love (to me), I'm ready to believe...
