|When he first cried
|When he first cried his mother died
His mother died
I had tried to be his guide
I had tried to be his guide
When he was born I was too young
when he was born I was too young
The father searches for the son
the father searches for the son
 
in Istanbul
In Istanbul
give him back to me
Give him back to me
Istanbul, give me back my brown-eyed son
Oh, Istanbul
Give me back my brown-eyed son


Moonlight jumping through the trees
Moonlight jumping through the trees
Sunken eyes avoiding me
sunken eyes avoiding me
From dawn to dusk the hunt is on
from dawn to dusk the hunt is on
The father searches for the son
the father searches for the son
 
in Istanbul
In Istanbul
give him back to me
Give him back to me
Istanbul, give me back my brown-eyed son
In Istanbul
Give me back my brown-eyed son


On secret streets in disbelief
On secret streets in disbelief
Little shadow shows the lead
Little Shadow shows the lead
Prostitutes; stylish and glum
Prostitutes stylish and glum
In amongst them you are one
in amongst them you are one
Oh, what have I done?
oh, what have I done?


Rolling breathless off the tongue
Rolling breathless off the tongue
The vicious street gang slang
The vicious street gang slang
I lean into a box of pine
I lean into a box of pine
Identify the kid as mine
identify the kid as mine.
