Boulevard

Come to Baku's Boulevard, everything's here.
A boy doesn't have shame,
a girl doesn't have modesty.
There's merriment, music everywhere,
they are unaware of Karabakh.
There's no shame left,
no sorrow on the faces covered with make-up.
See a gazelle running from one bush to another.

I'm looking for that beautiful girl along the shore.
I'm looking for that beautiful girl along the shore.
Where are you, sweetheart, I can't calm myself.
I'm looking everywhere, I'm looking everywhere.
I'm looking everywhere, I'm looking everywhere.
To find you, my coy gazelle.
To find you, my coy gazelle.

In the evening, when a garden along the shore
Was covered with lights, I saw her.
She looked at me with her grey eyes and passed
She stole my heart and passed.

The bathrooms cost money
and the poor run to the bushes
They almost pee in their pants
till they find the bushes
The poor come here day and night to kiss.
When police takes a shirvan,
the poor become idlers
Saying either marry or always see a guest here.

I'm looking for that beautiful girl along the shore.
I'm looking for that beautiful girl along the shore.
Where are you, sweetheart, I can't calm myself.
I'm looking everywhere, I'm looking everywhere.
I'm looking everywhere, I'm looking everywhere.
To find you, my coy gazelle .
To find you ,my coy gazelle.

Since the Boulevard was renovated and called new,
The commerce was cut into small pieces
and the area was thrown away
Beluga ran off.
Sprats looked out of waters.
The people of Baku became "donar" (Turkish sandwich)
The heart became inflamed in the Balkans.
See Sara, who was taken away with the flood, on the shore.

Don't look for grey eyes, you'll be mistaken,
there are lenses in the eyes.
The lenses can't be told in our places,
the masks can't be seen in the faces.
Beware of the police
when you're walking with a girl on the shore.
It's a rule here that a cane goes up
and down for a "shirvan".
See Punhan here for writing the time clearly.
