Aleyna Tilki & Mabel Matiz – Kayboldum Masalında ( English Lyrics )
“Lost In Your Fairytale”
[Verse]
Caught in love’s trap once again
“Draw your slingshot, shoot” I said
I’m no sore loser, I won’t cry
You borrowed my eyes instead
[Chorus]
Left with you without your knowing
My hands, my face stayed there
Grew quiet, then grew restless
Childhood filled the air
[Bridge]
Jumped the fence into your yard
Lost in your fairytale
Stood up worse for wear
Found myself in your trail
[Refrain]
Jumped the fence into your yard
Lost in your fairytale
Shake the stones from your skirt now
Let me be born in your style
[Outro]
(Repeat Verse & Chorus)
Translation Notes:
Maintained the circular structure of the original Turkish lyrics
“Usulunda” translated as “in your style/trail” to preserve the nuanced meaning
Kept the childlike imagery (“slingshot”, “fairytale”) consistent
“Beterinden” rendered as “worse for wear” to capture the self-destructive nuance
The refrain’s “Yeniden doğayım” becomes “Let me be born” to maintain rebirth imagery
