I know it's not usually kosher to start a forum topic just to request a translation, but: the people I was counting on to translate it for me are not able to do so at present, and I'm running out of time:(Only 4 days left, and I still need to find someone to record it!
I'm trying to get the English Lyrics of this very special WEDDING song translated into SINGABLE Turkish (i,e, that can be sung to the rhythm and melody of Leonard Cohen's original "Hallelujah")
As sung by Father Ray Kelly; the English lyrics and video link posted here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T95bqw0Clt8
(these latter two videos both also have two different German translations of the lyrrics as subtitles, in case that is of any help or inspiration to a translator.)

Are there any gifted Turkish poets or songwriters out there who might be able to produce a SINGABLE Turkish version of this in time for me to also record it and surprise my friends who are getting married this coming Sunday, April 25th? (They are protestant Christians; so in English, the word "pastor" should be substituted for "priest"; I believe the appropriate Turkish word for "pastor" is "papaz" or "pastör", NOT "rahip")
Kalbimden teşekkür ederim, if anyone can help me in time!!!
Sincerely,
Ibn As-Sabil
