Literal translation

heart wound

Unforgettable sorrow; lasting grief or anguish inflicted on someone.

Ömürümde ketmezça, jüregime jara saldıŋ! Janŋan otha suw quyduŋ.You dealt me a wound of the heart that will never leave me as long as I live! You poured water on a blazing fire.
Köpürnü ötsem, oy jarlı atam, Men suw tübünde qalmazem, Jarıla qalğan, oh, jarlı anama Bıllay jürek jara salmazem.Had I crossed the bridge, oh my poor father, I would not have stayed under the water; to my poor mother, left with her heart torn, oh, I would not have dealt such a wound of the heart.
