Artur Andrus - Cyniczne córy Zurychu

An old Turk father has
Six resourceful daughters:
Ayshe, Baszak, Fatma, Djanan, Burcu, and Rashida
When he gets angry at his daughters
He does it in this order:
Ayshe, Baszak, Fatma, Djanan, Burcu, and Rashida
One night they left home
And secretly ran away
Ayshe, Baszak, Fatma, Djanan, Burcu, and Rashida
The father received news that
They were in the city of Zurich
The father was struck with anger
And exclaimed:

Cynical daughters of Zurich
I condemn you all entirely
Cynical daughters of Zurich
Istanbul weeps for you

After a few years
They married Swiss men
Ayshe, Baszak, Fatma, Djanan, Burcu, and Rashida
And they became fond of
Lake Zurich
Ayshe, Baszak, Fatma, Djanan, Burcu, and Rashida
Their husbands, lovely boys
Five brothers, one stranger:
Simon, Lukas, Christian, Tobias, Jonas, and Andreas
The Turk father received photos
Each with the likeness of a son-in-law
The father was seized with fury
And tore his hair out

Cynical daughters of Zurich
I condemn you all entirely
Cynical daughters of Zurich
Istanbul weeps for you

They all work together
Trading gas with Russia
Ayshe, Baszak, Fatma, Djanan, Burcu, and Rashida
Sending through the Bosporus
Uranium, copper, and phosphorus
Ayshe, Baszak, Fatma, Djanan, Burcu, and Rashida
In secret from their husbands
They also trade launchers
Ayshe, Baszak, Fatma, Djanan, Burcu, and Rashida
The father, at the end of his life
Became a showbiz star
Radio “Istanbul 2”
Plays nonstop:

Cynical daughters of Zurich
I condemn you all entirely
Cynical daughters of Zurich
Istanbul weeps for you

Cynical daughters of Zurich
I condemn you all entirely
Cynical daughters of Zurich
Istanbul weeps for you
