This clip from youtube.com is of Aysun Gültekin singing Şu Yüce Dağları, followed by the choir and band performing a second song, which I haven't yet translated:
Those high mountains are covered in fog
Again there is bad news from abroad.
At daybreak someone is crying here
Tears cover the meadows
I saw green leaves made into wild seas
Clouds take their moisture from the dark earth
The sound of a crying girl coming from afar
Again there is bad news from abroad
Our hearts worry on those days
In front of me hung a black curtain
My beloved, I held on to your hands in sorrow
Again there is bad news from abroad
Origin: Erzincan
Turkish original text:
Şu Yüce Dağları Duman Kaplamış
Yinemi Gurbetten Kara Haber Var
Seher Vakti Burda Kimler Ağlamış
Çimenler Üstünde Gözyaşları Var
Ham Denizler Gördüm Yeşil Yapraktan
Bulutlar Nem Almış Kara Topraktan
Bir Kız Ağlar Sesi Gelir Uzaktan
Yinemi Gurbetten Kara Haber Var
Gönlümüz Gamlanır Böyle Günlerde
Önüme Çekildi Bir Siyah Perde
Yar Senin Elinden Tutuldum Derde
Yinemi Gurbetten Kara Haber Var
