Aşk geldi, aşk geldi, damarlardaki kanım gibi oldu
Varlık boşalıp, her tarafım dost eliyle doldu
Zapteyledi bütün ecza-i vücudumu
Kaldı kâvi bir namı bana, baki hep
Şu koskoca alemde yalnız bir kulum
Aşk olmasa hiçbir işe gelmezdi gün ışığı
Aşk geldi, damarlardaki kanım gibi oldu
Varlık boşalıp, her tarafım dost eliyle doldu
Zapteyledi bütün ecza-i vücudumu
Kaldı kâvi bir namı bana, baki hep

Ya sana varmak ya bana varman
Ya bana gitmeden yanıma kalman
Yasını tutmasam, yaşına varsam
Karanlık doğmadan, ışığa kalsam
Hayal hiç ölçülmez, ne boyu ne de eni
Kaya kömürü gönül, yakar hep, koru benim
Hayata seninle dayanırım her nefes diken
Diken ne derttir gülüm, canın sağ olsun da senin

Aşkın yok nispeti, bir anda bağlanır kısmetin
Her düğüm çözülür, çek hasreti
Havadaki kasvet birazcık benden
Karadaki ben değil, havadaki bazen
Uçan bir kuş, bazen kaybolan bir kumum
Koskoca alemde yalnız bir kulum
Kolkola gezmek her can ile suç mu
Tamam o zaman, benim bu alemde en suçlu

Baktım göğe masmavi, bastığım yer hâki
Gördüğüm diyar çok, görmediğimse gani gani
Nefes alıp veren bu can da çaresiz kalınca
özlemim büyük, yolum uzun, ben de bir karınca
Yanan gönül akan suda, o yolun en sonunda
Dostum bende solur, eğer dostum benle kalırsa
Dostun senle yaşar, dostun eğer senle ölürse
Bir çiçek olup açar belki tekrârdan doğunca

Her açan senin gülün, hergünse benim günüm
Gözyaşı insan külüyse, her yakan insan sözü
Kıvılcım sözün özüyse, ayrılık yakar gözü
Tek gören gönül gözüyse, kelamım gönül sözüm
Yalnızlıktan galip çıkmaktır irfan hiç olmadan
İrfan çıktığın her seferden dönmek hasret ekmeden
Ektiysen de ders almaktır hasret filizlenmeden
Ekmediysen gönül almaktır seferin bitmeden

Koskoca alemde yalnız bir kulum
İrfan gönül almaktır seferin bitmeden

Love has come, love has come, it has become like the blood in my veins
Existence has emptied, and all around me has been filled with the hand of a friend
It has captured all parts of my body
There is only one name left for me, forever
In this vast universe, I am but a servant
Without love, the light of day would be of no use
Love has come, it has become like the blood in my veins
Existence has emptied, and all around me has been filled with the hand of a friend
It has captured all parts of my body
There is only one name left for me, forever

Either come to you or come to me
Either come to me or stay with me without going away
If I don't mourn you, I reach your age
If I don't enter the darkness, I stay in the light
Imagination cannot be measured, neither its length nor its width
My heart is a lump of coal, it always burns, protect me
I endure life with you, every breath is a thorn
What is a thorn, my dear, as long as you are well

Love has no proportion, it ties fate in an instant
Every knot is untied, draw longing
The gloom in the air is a bit from me
The darkness on the ground is not me, sometimes it's in the air
A flying bird, sometimes a lost grain of sand
In this vast universe, I am but a servant
Is it a crime to walk arm in arm with everyone
Okay then, I am the guiltiest in this world

I looked at the sky, it was blue, the ground I stepped on was black
I have seen many lands, but I have seen much more
When this breath-taking life becomes helpless
My longing is great, my path is long, I am but an ant
The burning heart in the flowing water, at the end of that path
My friend withers in me, if my friend stays with me
Your friend lives with you, if your friend dies with you
Perhaps it will bloom as a flower, when it is born again

Every rose that blooms is yours, every day is mine
If tears are a human's ashes, every fire is human words
If the spark is the essence of the word, separation burns the eye
If the only way to see is with the eye of the heart, my words are my words of the heart
To emerge victorious from loneliness is wisdom without being absent
Wisdom is to return from every journey you take without longing
If you have planted, it is to learn without letting longing sprout
If you have not planted, it is to win hearts before the journey is over

In this vast universe, I am but a servant
Wisdom is to win hearts before the journey is over
