Hi cheese (again )
What does this line mean?
"My hands cannot hold without seeing you"

Hi There is an ambiguity there but she most probably says "My hands cannot hold you without seeing you." (So I have to see you in order to touch you/ hold you )

What about: "My hands can't reach you without seeing you"?

Hum, yes you are right, we can say that. And I think the poll might also say the best choice because there is a little ambiguity in the text

birebir çeviri olmuş.orjinal metindeki duyguyu alamadım çeviride.

The song says:"...tutmaz ellerim seni görmeden..." -My hands cannot hold (metaph.I am powerless/decrepit, expression: "eli ayağı tutmaz=decrepit" ) without seeing you...

I guess User10 is right with her suggestion.

Lilian, could you also edit my sentence accordingly please?

Thank you

I also agree with User10.

"decrepit"? That sounds really weird.
What about "useless/disabled"?

Both useless and disabled are OK, or even powerless maybe. I guess you decide which one sounds more natural and better. The sentence might be "I am ( feel) useless/disabled/powerless without seeing you."

The best in English I guess is:
"Not seeing you makes me feel powerless", but perhaps that is too different from the original.

Though it gives the same meaning, and I think as the request is meaning only, we might edit the sentence the way you suggest.

But what about "I feel powerless if I don't see you." ?

Sounds fine

Done
