Translation
"Life Was Beautiful" "Hayat Güzelmış"
We neither walked side by side,
Nor we wandered idlely,
We didn't sleep nor wake up at the same place,
Not a day, not once,
It didn't happen, it couldn't happen,
Life was beautiful,
Flower was opened,
World was turned,
Birds soared,
Such and such,
We neither lay under the sunshine side by side,
Nor we soaked in the rain,
Jumping on a steamboat,
Did we ever go any place in a morning,
It didn't happen, it couldn't happen,
Life was beautiful,
Sun rose,
Ships passed,
Rain fell,
Because of not being ashamed.

Wow...!! Great. I exactly was in doubt about to decide whether Ne ....... Ne ...... means how ..... how ......., or it means neither ...... nor ........!! Now I got it. Thank you so so much. It is strange ne ...... ne ...... here is exactly like Persian structure and semantics! I had guessed, but never thought it would be in this case like that of Persian, and the meaning in this case fitted.
I appreciate so much your great assistance sir!
Now the meaning is quite clear for me.
Nadir.

When you translate a song, only the translation of the title is needed, not the following: "Life Was Beautiful" "Hayat Güzelmış". The title should simply be Life Was Beautiful with no quotation marks nor the original Turkish title.
Russia is waging a disgraceful war on Ukraine. Stand With Ukraine!

Hello sir. Ne.....ne means neither.... nor in English.
Ne yürüdük sokaklarda yan yana.............Neither we walked side by side,
Ne dolaştık avare..............Nor we wandered idlely
Ne güneşe uzandık yan yana.........Neither we lay under the sunshine side by side,
Ne yağmurda ıslandık.........Nor we soaked in the rain
Utanmadan......Without shame or being ashamed
