Eurovision 1981 Turkey:
Modern Folk Trio & Ayşegül - "Dönme Dolap"
Dönme dolap
Yaşamak oyun değil arkadaş
Dünyaya gelmenin bir bedeli var
Dost bildiklerin tükenmez arkadaş
Sevgi insanların hamurunda var
Yaşamak dönme dolap gibidir
Onun da iniş ve çıkışları var
Talihlidir hep çıkanlar arkadaş
Gerçek dost inenlerin yanında var
Nefes almak değildir yaşamak
Düşünmek ve hissetmektir yaşamak
Sen gülmeden geçen günlere acı
Dönme dolap iner çıkar arkadaş
Yaşamak oyun değil arkadaş
Dünyaya gelmenin bir bedeli var
Dost bildiklerin tükenmez arkadaş
Sevgi insanların hamurunda var
Yaşamak dönme dolap gibidir
Onun da iniş ve çıkışları var
Talihlidir hep çıkanlar arkadaş
Gerçek dost inenlerin yanında var
Nefes almak değildir yaşamak
Düşünmek ve hisѕetmektir yaşamak
Sen gülmeden geçen günlere acı
Dönme dolap iner çıkar arkadaş
Arkadaş… arkadаş…
The carousel
Life isn't a game, my friend
Coming to the world has its price
Friendship is eternal, my friend
Love is in the core of man
Life is like a carousel
It also has its ups and downs
Lucky are those who go up my friend
But by those who go down stand true friends
To breathe is not to live
Living is thinking and feeling
Regret the days gone without joy
The carousel goes up and down my friend
Life isn't a game, my friend
Coming to the world has its price
Friendship is eternal, my friend
Love is in the core of man
Life is like a carousel
It also has its ups and downs
Lucky are those who go up my friend
But by those who go down stand true friends
To breathe is not to live
Living is thinking and feeling
Regret the days gone without joy
The carousel goeѕ up аnd down my friend
My friend… my friend…
