Dunya - Toprak (Official Music Video)

Показать описание

Dunya means world. This world, which is wraped into a robe of dreams by the band. The single release Toprak of the debut EP is an epic venture in Turkish. Dunya shows that they are not only well versed in dynamic riffing and creating broad soundscapes, but can also seamlessly harmonize them. In a precisely orchestrated symbiosis, playful synthesizers and barbaric fuzz guitars make peace; that peace the band tangibly longs for in their lyrics.

Toprak reveals melancholy without being passive or powerless. Instead, the song has something revelatory in its tension, almost opening. Singer Banu Sengül's voice holds an urgency and strength that captures and resolutely exposes their world-weariness at its core.

The melodies remind of bands like Altin Gün or Derya Yıldırım & Grup Şimşek, without losing anything of Dunya's own musical essence in the slightest.

"Toprak" is the first Single taken from Dunya's upcoming self-titled debut EP, out May 7th on Cassette, CD and Digital!

++ LYRICS ++
Toprak, kara Toprak
Erde, dunkle Erde
bütün hayatın kaynağı sensin
du bist der Ursprung allen Lebens
dünya, ah ölümlü dünya
Ach, du todbringende Welt
senin güzelliğine gözlerimiz kör.
für deine Schönheit, sind unsere Augen blind

kuşların şarkıları
Der Gesang der Vögel
ahududunun tadı
der Geschmack von Himbeeren
yaprakların hışırtısı
Das rascheln der Blätter
her şey yalnızca senden kaynaklanıyor
All das entspringt nur aus dir

suyundan içeriz
wir trinken von deinem Wasser
bu her zaman böyleydi
So ist es immer gewesen
dünya değişiyor ama sensiz asla hayatta kalamayız
Die Welt ändert sich, aber ohne dich können wir nicht überleben

Gideceğimiz o gün gelecek
Der Tag unseres Abschiedes wird kommen
geri dönmek istemeyeceğim
ich werde nicht zurückkehren wollen
sadece bir avuç toprak kalır geride
Was bleibt ist nur ein häufchen Erde
ve bütün farklılıklar kaybolur ölümün gözünde
All unsere Unterschiede, verschwinden im Auge des Todes.
