O zaman düşünmeye iyice başladım. That|time|to think|thoroughly|I started ثم بدأت أفكر جيدا في حينها. Then I really started to think.

Şimdi, ya bu adam gibi yaşlandığımda bile Now|or|this|man|like|when I grow old|even الآن، كان علي أن أكون على خشبة المسرح، كوني أشخاص آخرين Now, even when I grow old like this man,
