Yolcu - Ceylan Ertem

Bir anadan dünyaya gelen yolcu

Görünce dünyaya gönül verdin mi?

Kimi böyük, kimi böcek, kimi kul

Merak edip hiçbirini sordun mu

Bunlar neden nedenini sordun mu?

İnsan ölür ama ruhu ölmez

Bunca mahlukat var hiçbiri gülmez

Cehennem azabı zordur çekilmez

Azap çeken hayvanları gördün mü?

İnsandan doğanlar insan olurlar

Hayvandan doğan hayvan olurlar

Hepisi de bu dünyaya gelirler

Ana haktır sen bu sırra erdin mi?

Bunlar neden sebebini sordun mu?

Vade tekmil olup ömrün dolmadan

Emanetçi emanetin almadan

Ömrünün bağının gülü solmadan

Varıp bir canana ikrar verdin mi?

Varıp bir cananın kulu oldun mu?

Garip bülbül gibi feryat ederiz

Cahiller elinde küskün kederiz

Cehalet elinde küskün kederiz

Hep yolcuyuz böyle geldik gideriz

Dünya senin vatanın mı yurdun mu?

A passenger born from a mother

Did you fall in love with the world when you saw it?

Some are big, some are insects, some are servants.

Did you wonder and ask any of them?

Did you ask why these are?

Man dies but his soul does not die

There are so many creatures, none of them laugh

The torment of hell is hard to bear

Have you seen the suffering animals?

Humans become humans

They become animals born of animals

All of them come to this world

It is the main right, have you reached this secret?

Did you ask why these are?

The maturity is complete and before your life expires

Without the escrow's escrow

Before the rose of the bond of your life fades

Did you come and make a confession to a beast?

Did you arrive and become a servant of a beast?

We cry like a strange nightingale

We are grieving in the hands of the ignorant

We are resentful sorrow in the hands of ignorance

We are always passengers, we come and go like this

Is the world your homeland or your homeland?
