I'll try to translate a song by Sebnem Ferah. Its name is Bugün (Today). I think she wrote this song for her dying sister Sadness story.

TODAY

I touched your photograph and kissed it once again today.

Time, slow down!
it's early to say goodbye to sunlight.

I miss your voice so much, so much...
I don't know about that the world stopped. Why?
I'm searching for missing with you (in other things)

This song is not about romance,
(I wrote it because) I just feel like.
If you hear me, smile for me.

Be my river, come and flow once again
Be butterfly, come and fly once again
Be my flower, come and bloom again
Be wind... (breathe a sigh)



I hope I properly translated it
