The Legend of the Captive (with Berzan Önen)

My cross, the sign of love to my departed
That shall last for centuries to come
In this cursed column that I'm chained
She whom I loved, my faith, my desire
Punished for love, oh how divine
Not a day passes without me dreaming your light
I'll not lose my faith even as my body rots
Though we came from different tribes
I knew one day that you'd be my bride
Now that you've accepted my love
I feel in heaven, like I've risen above
But, whispers in the village warn of a love that's forbidden
I should've known that they wouldn't accept our love
The dark skies break their silence with cries
Of my beloved. They've thrown her lifeless in the cold
River, where I too shall join her
In the name of your god, is this justice you call?
And they chain me to this column
When I only wish for death (wish for death)
Cause without her, I now lost my way
Without her love I lose my faith, day by (day by day by) day!

The cross I bear, the cross I bear!
And they chain me to this column
When I only wish for death
All I have left is the cross that I scratched with my nails
Cross of a faith which I lose day by day
