LYRICS

Nightshade blooming in my garden
Love I found on my way
Taking root when all was darkened
Scarred in me always

Shine, shine, shine on my dark nights
Shine a light on me
I've been wandering all my life and
Now I see the land

In my mornings, waves have taken
What I thought was there
I left you in time forsaken
(With) flowers in your hair

Shine, shine, shine on my dark nights
Shine a light on me
I've been wandering all my life and
Now I see the land
AZERBAIJANI SECTION:

Girdim eşqin dəryasına, gəmim dolmadı,
Gənc yaşımda səni sevdim, mənim olmadın yar,
Gənc yaşımda səni sevdim, mənim olmadın.

Gəl, gəl, gəl, gözəlim, gəl,
Sevirəm səni.

Gəl, gəl, gəl, gözəlim, gəl,
Sevirəm səni.

Əgər qismətim olarsan,
Alaram səni.

Əgər qismətim olarsan,
Olaram sənin ah yar yar

Əgər qismətim olarsan,
Olaram sənin ah yar yar

Əgər qismətim olarsan,
Olaram sənin
