This book consists of 20 poems, along with short stories and several fragments drawn from the author’s 20 years of recollections (1990-2010). The events and people in the poems and in the attached short stories are sometimes based on real life and are sometimes imaginary characters inspired by her general observations of human life. This book is originally written in Turkish and then translated into English and Chinese. The author of these poems is in actual fact a Professor of History; but this book is neither prepared as an academic publication nor a textbook. The book is prepared in three languages (Turkish, Chinese and English). Aside from the 20 poems, which the author composed in an amateur spirit during her free time, this book also partly reveals her memories of Turkey, England, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Estonia and Taiwan, as well as containing verses drawn from her general life experiences. The subjects of the poems mainly touch on diverse matters as life, separation, death, friendship, love, family, and childhood memories.

我曾視你為烏邁鳥

我曾視你為烏邁鳥
雙手和言詞都曾是你的碑文
唉！吾愛！
也許你從來就什麼都不是，也從不存在
**
別說，用問的
在生命之鏡中 問問你自己
在你的身上 讓人看見你的舞台
展示你的生命 從有到無
**
若沉重能被了解
你的名字將在心碎者的國度流傳
在塵與土之間，放開你自己吧
沉入大海吧 在那不存在的地方
**
你的消息讓我的耐心耳聾
拂曉一天天地算著它的年歲
我整束我的生命，而一切已太遲
我在遠方手握幾條短線 為了一個什麼也不是的理由
**
我曾視你為烏邁鳥
今天我回首過往 唉！吾愛
也許你從來就什麼都不是
也從不曾存在……
從你的灰燼中再一次
是不是如鳳凰般 和我一起升起

YOU WERE MY DREAM MAN, LEGENDARY AS THE UMAY BIRD

You were my dream man, legendary as the Umay bird
Your hands and words were your inscription
Oh my love!
Probably you never were, never existed
**
Don’t talk, ask
Ask yourself in life’s mirrors
May your stage be seen on your body
For you to be exposed totally from nothing
**
If the taste of burden were to be known
Your name would stay within the broken lands
Lose yourself in their dust and soil
For you to dive into the ocean from nowhere
**
My patience is deafened by your news
Calendars counting days
I put my life on hold, I am late
I am far away with short ropes in hand for no reason
**
I thought of you as my dream man, legendary as the Umay bird
Today I go back to the past oh love
Probably you never were
Never existed…
From your ashes once again, like a phoenix this time
Would you arise with me.
