Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ateş olup yaksan da
Gonca güller taksan da
Ahu olup baksan da
Affetmem asla seni

Ateş olup yaksan da
Gonca güller taksan da
Mecnun olup baksan da

Affetmem asla seni

Som altından tac olsan
Aşkıma muhtaç olsan
Derdime ilaç olsan
Affetmem asla seni

Yakut yüklü dal olsan
Al ipekten şal olsan
Peteklerde bal olsan
Affetmem asla seni

Şarkı olsan dillerde
Gonca olsan güllerde
Leyla olsan çöllerde
Affetmem asla seni

Şarkı olsan dillerde
Gonca olsan güllerde
Mecnun olsan çöllerde
Affetmem asla seni

Som altından tac olsan
Aşkıma muhtaç olsan
Derdime ilaç olsan
Affetmem asla seni

Yakut yüklü dal olsan
Al ipekten şal olsan
Peteklerde bal olsan
Affetmem asla seni

Affetmem asla seni
Affetmem asla seni

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Neşe Karaböcek's song "Affetmem Asla Seni" express an unwavering stance of not forgiving a person who has caused pain and heartbreak. The opening lines establish this position, stating that even if the person were to light a fire and adorn the surroundings with beautiful roses and look as captivating as "ahu," the singer would never forgive them. The repetition of these lines in the second verse reinforces the theme of the song, implying that nothing the person does would be able to sway the singer's decision.

The third and fourth verses present more metaphors to describe the person's hypothetical attempts to win back the singer's affection. Even if they were to wear a crown made of solid gold, be in desperate need of the singer's love, or serve as a remedy for the singer's wounds, the singer would not forgive them. The same goes for if they were to appear as a precious gem-studded branch, a fine silk scarf, or a source of sweet honey in a meadow.

Overall, the lyrics convey a strong and resolute message of not giving in to someone who has caused hurt, no matter how they may try to reconcile or make amends.
