FAZIL HÜSNÜ DAGLARCA
Seçme Siirler * Selected Poems 		< i >
Translated by Talat Sait Halman 

Dosdogru

     Iki kisi birbirini aldatir
     Köy olur oralari
     Uluslar yalan söyler birbirine
     Ülkelerde dolar yeryüzümüz



Telling it Right

     Two men dupe each other --
     A village rises there.
     Nations lie to each other --
     States fill our world.
