A POEM ON LEFKE
|
|

LEFKE
Bir kasaba vardir
Kibris'in kuzeyinde,
Limana yakin bir yerde bir guzellik verir.
Portakal bahceleri ile memlekete,
Hele olsun bir gece sen de orda olmalisin.
Gelir uzaktan liman sesleri,
Cinlatir Lefkenin dort bir yerini.
Etrafi cevrilmistir daglar ile.
Iki dere gecer ayirir Lefke'yi ikiye.
Gel gor arkades bir Lefke'yi.
Seveceksin istemeyerek.
Bagliyacak seni o guzel bahcelerine,
Turuncu olur o mevsim.
portokallar olunca ,
Guler sanki Lefkenin Yuzu.
Sarilir yerli capaya hemen.
"capalayim" der " seneye,
olur belki daha guzel"
Biraz yuru git kuzeye.
Goreceksin duyacaksin orada,
Bir makine sesi cikar
Bir duman burur her tarafi.
Fakat kokuyu yok eder,
Guzel cam agaclari.
Burasi Lefke'nin en islek yeri,
Burasi Lefke'nin madeni. |
