İçimi açtım
Sordum bütün insanlara
Ne varsa sustum, dinledim
Dinledikçe kederlendim

Baktım olmadı
Duyduklarım son bulmadı
Bir ümit kadere sordum

Sonun onla olmaz dedi

Ne hâllerdeyim
Sensiz bir deliyim
Anladım ki yaşanmadan tükenmiyor
Öyle değil mi?

Aşkı yaşayan bilir, gözleri gülen bilir
Gerisi bana vız gelir, gelip geçer
Bugün mutlu olduysam yarına ağlayamam
Bu gönül keder de bilir, boş ver

Aşkı yaşayan bilir, gözleri gülen bilir
Gerisi bana vız gelir, gelir geçer
Bugün mutlu olduysam yarına ağlayamam
Bu gönül keder de bilir, boş ver

İçimi açtım
Sordum bütün insanlara
Ne varsa sustum, dinledim
Dinledikçe kederlendim

Baktım olmadı
Duyduklarım son bulmadı
Bir ümit kadere sordum
Sonun onla olmaz dedi

Ne hâllerdeyim
Sensiz bir deliyim
Anladım ki yaşanmadan tükenmiyor
Öyle değil mi?

Aşkı yaşayan bilir, gözleri gülen bilir
Gerisi bana vız gelir, gelip geçer
Bugün mutlu olduysam yarına ağlayamam
Bu gönül keder de bilir, boş ver

Aşkı yaşayan bilir, gözleri gülen bilir
Gerisi bana vız gelir, gelir geçer

Bugün mutlu olduysam yarına ağlayamam
Bu gönül keder de bilir, boş ver

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Aşkın Nur Yengi's song "Kadere Sordum" express the feeling of vulnerability and seeking solace in the face of love and destiny. The singer opens up and asks everyone around her about what lies within her, but finds herself remaining silent and listening as she becomes increasingly burdened by what she hears. She realizes that she cannot find the answers and solace she seeks. In her desperation, she turns to fate for hope, only to be told that her ending cannot be with the one she desires. The lyrics also reflect the emotional turmoil and longing in her state of being without her loved one, acknowledging that true love cannot be fully understood or embraced until experienced firsthand. The chorus further emphasizes this point by acknowledging that those who have experienced love and seen happiness in someone's eyes understand it, while everything else is inconsequential. The singer recognizes that happiness today cannot guarantee tears tomorrow, and even though her heart knows sorrow, she advises herself to let go and not dwell on it.
