in the dizziness of the sky Explanation: "Feleğin başında dönmek", baş dönmesiyle ilişkilendirildiğinden, feleği "gökyüzü" anlamıyla düşünürsek (çünkü öncesinde "gökyüzü" kelimesi de geçiyor.): May the wine cellar spin around in (ya da with) the dizziness of the sky. |

may the wheel of fortune get dizzy Explanation: Çok gözel bir kelime oyunu yapılmı... şarabın baş döndürmesi ve feleğin dönmesi... may the wheel of fortune get dizzy... derdim ben olsam. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6小时 (2008-03-11 16:55:11 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- felek'i kader olarak algıladım ben, 'gökyüzü'nden ziyade. |
