Hi, could someone translate this, please? Someone told me, that part of this text (which includes three texts, I suppose) is in Kurdish, and part in Turkish. It would be great to have both translations, but I don't even know which is which, so, I'm asking for translation of Turkish fragment. Thank you in advance!

Demmê

Demme demme demme
Çi xveþ e demme
Werin hev ra bigrin
He meþk u sem e

Cema me þuna Ehl-i Beytane
Sema meye tera çend qible rane
Riya me riya Dewdu Ýmame
Xizir hazir nazir li ser riya ne

Eme birati bikin re tevdir
Em nabin hesire ber zulumen mir
E ben zemamen beqeyd u binur
E rabe zemamen tari u zuxur
----

DEM
Dem dem dem
Ne güzeldir dem
Gelin birlikte tutalým
Meþk ile sema

Cemimiz Ehl-i Beytlerin yeridir
Semamýz kaç kýbleye bedel
Yolumuz Oniki Ýmam'ýn yoludur
Hýzýr hazýr nazýr yolumuzdadýr

Kardeþliði yol yordam yapacaðýz
Bey zulmünün esiri olmayacaðýz
Gelecek prangasýz aydýnlýk çaðlar
Kalkacak karanlýk zuhur çaðlarý
-

Ala Gözlü Nazlý Pirim

Ala gözlü nazlý pirim
Gönül senin pervendedir
Ben severim, sen kaçarsýn
Ýman senin nerendedir

Derviþ Alim der övdüðüm
Aþkýn hayalin kurduðum
Suç benim deðil sevdiðim
Sana meyil verendedir

Anyone? Anything? Please... Will someone try to translate it? I will settle even for some paraphrase or periphrasis!

DEM

Dem Dem Dem
How beautiful is dem!
Come , practice together
Mesk and sema(whirl)

Our congress is the place of ehli-beyts'
Our sema is worth numerous qiblas(kible(s))
Our way is 12 Imam's way
Hizir is ready and overlooking on our way

We'll make brotherhood a way of living
We'll not be slaves of seigniory's cruelty
Clear days without fetter will come
Dark happening ages will come to an end

...............................................................

I'm writing it to inform you about the song "Dem". This song includes words with religious meanings and most
of them are not available in english.Here are some words which can confuse you.

Dem: Dem is a kind of dance which is generally practiced by particular religious sect of Islam
Ehli Beyt : Ehli Beyt is a term which directly means "home inhabitants" and literally it means the people around Hz. Mohammed(Prophet of Islam)
12 Imam : These are 12 important imam in the sect of Islam "Sia"
Hizir : Hizir is a prophet (possibly) who is believed to help people who are in trouble

And here is the second song;

My Red Eyed Coy Patriarch (Ala gozlu nazli pirim)

My red eyed coy patriarch
Hearth is in your perven(!?:%)
I love you and you flee
Where is belief in you ?

Dervish Ali says , "my praised
My dreamed of being in love with
Guilty is not me , my love
Guilty is the one who gave you hope"

.........................................................................

I'm not sure whether or not I made a true translation but I tried I didnt even know some turkish words in it.(Even though I am Turkish)

Note : The Kurdish and Turkish parts of the song are same in meaning.
