Text
Submitted by dinmamma
Source language: Turkish

Gözyaşım şarap olsa
Gençliğim harap olsa
Her günüm azab olsa
Yine seni seveceÄŸim..

Arım,balım,peteğim
Gülüm,dalım,çiçeğim
Bilsem ki öleceğim
Yine seni seveceÄŸim..

Ne emelim ne arzum
Kalmasa tek umudum
Erisem yudum yudum
Yine seni seveceÄŸim..

Arım,balım,peteğim
Gülüm,dalım,çiçeğim
Bilsem ki öleceğim
Yine seni seveceÄŸim..

Title
My bee, my honey, my honeycomb
Translation
English

Translated by handyy
Target language: English

Even if my tears become wine
Even if my youth becomes ruin
Even if all my days become pain
I’ll love you anyway

My bee, my honey, my honeycomb
My rose, my branch, my bloom
Though I know I’ll die
I’ll love you anyway

Even if I do not have a single hope left
Nor dream nor desire
Even if I dissolve in sobs
I’ll love you anyway


My bee, my honey, my honeycomb
My rose, my branch, my bloom
Even if I know I am going to die
I’ll love you anyway


Remarks about the translation
anyhow reads better as anyway in english. I have edited it for you since the correction will not take away from the beauty of the poem.

Why, handyy? That's normal - you're not a native speaker of English. Don't worry about it - I just wanted to call your attention to the edits so you could learn from them.

It wasn't just me, Franz. There's a difference here - handyy only makes a few errors in his/her English.

P.S. Your sentence above should be "Then you made jp block me from translating into English."

Genau so wollte ich's gern geschrieben haben :-)

ist schon in Ordnung - Verschiedene Behandlung ist trotzdem offensichtlich.

Wenn es tatsächlich so ist, Franz, dann geht's nicht um Ungerechtigkeit, sondern darum, daß es für verschiedene Sprachen verschiedene Bedingungen gibt.

Wenn es für eine Sprache sehr wenige Übersetzer gibt, oder sehr wenige, die gut Englisch können, oder wenn es für eine bestimmte Übersetzung viele misgelungene Übersetzungen (von verschiedenen Übersetzern) gibt, werde ich denn mit dem Übersetzer zusammen arbeiten, um auf eine Version zu kommen, die sowohl die richtige Bedeutung trifft, wie auch auf Englisch gut klingt.

Hoffentlich hat das obengeschriebene die Prozedur, die ich gebrauche, für dich ein bißchen aufgeleuchtet.

Übrigens schätzte ich deine Übersetzungsfähigkeiten sehr, und du bist im Moment mein einziger Konkurrent für den Titel des reichsten Übersetzers!
