Özet
Cahit Sitki is one of the poets of Turkish literature who can express a lot of emotion with little words. He was able to achieve this success not only by the meaning burden in his chosen words but also by his fiction in his poems. Regardless of the spirit and expression of translation, poetry translation pushes translators to think in a certain proportion like poets; moreover, to behave like them. In this context, the translation of poetry is defined as an attempt that is mostly difficult and even doomed to failure among the cultural systems that are not very close to each other. In this study, the general features of Cahit Sitki Taranci poems have been attempted to be described. Taranci poems which are called `Yildizlar `and `Dalgin Olu', translated by Isik Aygun, have been analyzed within this framework and the translation of these poems into German has been examined critically and evaluated. At the end of the study, it has been found that Cahit Sitki had maintained his own poetic style in terms of both form and content, and this poetry showed acceptable translation results on the basis of selected examples.
