Title: Mountains [Verse 1] Don't think that I broke down after you left, My body standing here, but I'm still without you, I always manage on my own, Alone in the deserted mountains, silently. [Chorus] I won't collapse or vanish just because you're not here, I don't cry when I see your illusion, I won't bow down just because I loved you a lot, Alone in the deserted mountains, silently. [Verse 2] I live with a wounded heart, with my head held high, My heart may be in you, but I'm not there, My love is overshadowed by dark smoke, Alone in the deserted mountains, silently. [Chorus] I won't collapse or vanish just because you're not here, I don't cry when I see your illusion, I won't bow down just because I loved you a lot, Alone in the deserted mountains, silently. The lyrics of Ebru Yaşar's song "Dağlar" (Mountains) reflect a story of resilience and strength after a breakup or loss of a loved one. Despite the absence of the person she loved, the protagonist remains strong and self-reliant. She refuses to let their absence define her and instead focuses on being independent in the metaphorical mountains, where she is alone and silent. The chorus highlights the protagonist's determination not to crumble or lose herself simply because the person she loved is no longer present. She resists succumbing to tears or being overwhelmed by their memory. The lyrics suggest that her strength stems from the fact that she loved deeply but will not compromise her self-worth. In the second verse, it is revealed that the protagonist still carries a wounded heart but remains proud and resilient. Her heart may still long for the person she loved, but she accepts that she is not with them anymore. The mention of "dark smoke" symbolizes the heaviness and difficulty of her love, weighing on her as she navigates through life alone. Overall, "Dağlar" portrays a story of inner strength, resilience, and independence in the face of heartbreak and loss. The mountains serve as a metaphor for the protagonist's inner journey, where she finds solace and learns to stand on her own, despite the desolation and silence that surrounds her.
