I am posting what the Youth Forum has designated as the official theme song of the 2011 Youth Forum, something which, by intention, is constantly being played throughout the event. The song is İstanbul, by Turkish pop artist Sertab Erener, recorded in 2010. I have posted the song/music video below:
Turkish Lyrics:
Kimisi sadece işinde gücünde
Kimisi sadece heyecan peşinde
Kimisine sorulmaz bile derdi ne
Kiminle
(İstanbul)
Kimisi paça sıvar dereyi görmeden
Kimisi bütün yutar lokmayı bölmeden
Kimisi düşmez yakadan başa çorap örmeden
İnceden
(İstanbul)
Gelip bu şehri bozan
Bu şehre gelip bozulanlar
Hepsi aynı kazanda kaynıyor istanbulda
(Doğru söylüyor)
Dinle beni biraz şşt
Sen sen İstanbul sever seni sen beni seversen
Dinle beni biraz şşt
Sen sen İstanbul döver seni sen beni üzersen
Ne çok canlar yakar (İstanbul)
Bolca günahlara sokar (İstanbul)
Hızlı koşanları çabucak yorar İstanbul İstanbul
Ama sen istesen de bu şehirden kaçamayacaksın
Çünkü aklın bende bende İstanbuldayım
(Doğru söylüyor)
Dinle beni biraz şşt
Sen sen İstanbul sever seni sen beni seversen
Dinle beni biraz şşt
Sen sen İstanbul döver seni sen beni üzersen
Sen gidersin
İstanbul beklemez
Gelirsin gidersin
İstanbul farketmez
Acı çeker özlersin
İstanbul üzülmez
Nasıl nedir halin
istanbul hissetmez
(İstanbul)
İstanbul birini sevmiyorsan çekilmez
(Doğru söylüyor)
Dinle beni biraz şşt
Sen sen İstanbul sever seni sen beni seversen
Dinle beni biraz şşt
Sen sen İstanbul döver seni sen beni üzersen
Dinle beni biraz şşt
Sen sen İstanbul sever seni sen beni seversen
Dinle beni biraz şşt
Sen sen İstanbul döver seni sen beni üzersen
İstanbul sever seni sen beni öpersen
English Translated Lyrics:
Some people are just busy with their own work
Some people are none but in an excitement
Some people aren´t even asked about their problems
with who
(Istanbul)
Some people roll up their sleeves without seeing the waters
Some people gulp a bite without chewing it
Some people don´t fall without sewing socks from head to toes
(Istanbul)
Those who come to this city and ruin it
Those who come to this city and are ruined
They are all boiling in the same bowl. In Istanbul
(she is right)
Listen to me for a bit psssst
You you Istanbul would like you if you liked me
Listen to me for a bit psssst
You you Istanbul would beat you up if you make me sad
So much souls are burning (´cause of Istanbul)
(Istanbul) makes people do many sins
Istanbul Istanbul makes the ones who run fast exhausted
but even if you want to escape you can´t
because you always think about me and I am in Istanbul
(She is right)
Listen to me for a bit psssst
You you Istanbul would like you if you liked me
Listen to me for a bit psssst
You you Istanbul would beat you up if you make me sad
You would leave
Istanbul wouldn´t wait
You would come and leave
Istanbul wouldn´t notice
You would agonize and miss
Istanbul wouldn´t be sad
How you´re feeling
Istanbul wouldn´t notice
(Istanbul)
Istanbul is unbearable without someone to love
(She is right)
Listen to me for a bit psssst
You you Istanbul would like you if you liked me
Listen to me for a bit psssst
you you Istanbul would beat you up if you made me sad (2x)
Istanbul would like you if you kissed me

Sorry to hear that you lost two of your debates and that you needed printed evidence which you did not have with you.I guess all best laid plans have flaws in them. You learn no matter what the outcome though. I have arrived back home finally from Pennsylvania. It was hard to leave my dad and brother there. My dad seems very lost without my mom. They were married 68 years. That is a long time living everyday together. Her presence is missed terribly. Your trip continues to be very exciting for all of you. You look like you are enjoying the experience. I wish you the best and will be praying for all of you! I wish I could help you with the topics but I guess there is no way to connect with me. Just be confident and make use of your analytical capabilities.Speak clear and slow.Don't forget to SMILE!!!!!:)
