12. Äsir Yöräk / The Captive Heart
(music – Justin Marshall, words – Zulya Kamalova)

lyrics

Yöräğeñ çitlektä yoqli.
Biklängän, bik niq yozaği.
Yöräğeñä uñaili anda yäserenerğä,
Ber närsä timi, ni şatliq, ni bälä qaza.
Ber kem borçimi anda.

Yöräğeñ tin ğina tibä.
Kiräkmi ni kük ni saf xawa.
Serläşmi, ğazaplanmi, cirlami, endäşmi,
Özelep söimi, moñli sağişni xiç kertmi.

Çitlekne xawağa alip çiq.
Yozağin aniñ watip irğit.
Uyansin yöräk, moñli xislär kire qaitsin,
Bälki iskä töşär özderep cirlanğan cir,

Tüzärğa ğenä yazsin…

Your heart sleeps in a cage.
The cage is locked with a strong bolt.
It’s convenient for your heart to hide there.
Nothing will touch it, neither joy nor grief.
Nobody will disturb.

Your heart beats very quietly.
It doesn’t want to see the sky, breathe in the fresh air.
It does not feel, does not sing, does not answer,
It does not love, does not let sadness in.

Take the cage outside,
Break off the lock and throw it away.
Awaken your heart, let it take a breath of sweet air.
Perhaps it’ll remember the old song,
Sung with so much passion

If it can only bear it..
