Şev tariya xwe tirsiya
Gul kelemên xwe tirsiya
Ez evîna te tirsiyam yar
Şev mane bi serê xwe
Gul bi tenê serê xwe
Ez mame bi hesreta te yar
Para min jana jînê
Jiyana min ket keminê -
Bi bin destê evînê yar
Ez agir tu dûkal î
Ez kevan tu jî tîr î
Biçî jî tuyê vegerî yar
Xwîn li dil de keliya
Evîn dil de heliya
Çav mane li pey siya yar
Vegere min nehêle




Dibîni dil bê hal e
Wek xençera ser dil e yar

In Dino's song "Şev," the lyrics depict the longing and nostalgia of a lover who is separated from their beloved. The song opens with the lines "Şev tariya xwe tirsiya/Gul kelemên xwe tirsiya" which translate to "The night got tired of itself/The roses got tired of their thorns." These lines set a melancholic tone for the song and suggest that even the beauty in the world is feeling the fatigue of being apart from the loved one.


The lyrics also convey the singer's intense yearning for their partner, as seen in the lines "Ez evîna te tirsiyam yar/Şev mane bi serê xwe/Gul bi tenê serê xwe/Ez mame bi hesreta te yar" which translate to "I'm longing for you dear/The night is alone/The rose is alone/I'm left here yearning for you."

As the song continues, the singer expresses their agony and suffering, stating "Xwîn li dil de keliya/Evîn dil de heliya/Çav mane li pey siya yar" which translates to "The heart is bleeding/The love is burning/My eyes are fixed on the darkness." Ultimately, the singer cannot bear the distance any longer and begs their lover to return, singing "Vegere min nehêle/Dibîni dil bê hal e/Wek xençera ser dil e yar" or "Please come back to me/You see my heart is aching/Like a thorn in my heart, dear."
