Su anasi xäm yätim qiz / The Water Woman and the Orphan Girl
(words and music – Zulya Kamalova)

Suğa bar dide üği ana.
Kül yoqli äle, yeli baram.
Ber nindi sürät küldä çağila.
Küzema qari, qulda taraq.

Yörägem qati-qati tibä, tibä, tibä.
Ä ul qullarin miña suza, suza, suza.
Tamağim kibä, qotim oça, oça, oça.
Üzem alğa çabam, ä canim artqa.

Su anasina ğaşiq buldim.
Aniñ belän bergä külğä çumdim.
Su anasiz bulmas miña yäm.
Sixere belän genä dawalanam.

I am told to fetch water by my step-mother.
The lake is asleep. I walk, I weep.
I see a reflection in the mirror of the lake.
She stares into my eyes, brushing her long hair

My heart beats fast.
She reaches her arms towards me.
My throat dries up. I am scared.
My body flees,
But my heart longs to go back.

I’ve fallen for the charms of the Water Woman.
I jump into the lake with her.
I cannot live without her.
Only she can cure my poor heart.
