I wonder-is anyone here
A stranger as forlorn as I?
His heart wounded, his eyes tearful
A stranger as forlorn as I?
Let no one be lonesome like me
Or writhe in exile’s agony.
Teacher, I hope no one will be
A stranger as forlorn as I.
They’ll say, “He’s dead, that sad stranger.”
Hearing of it three days later,
They’ll wash my corpse in cold water
A stranger as forlorn as I.
Yunus gets no help nor pity.
No cure for his calamity,
Drifting from city to city-
A stranger as forlorn as I.
Aceb şu yerde var m’ola
Şöyle garib bencileyin
Bağrı başlı gözü yaşlı
Şöyle garib bencileyin
Kimseler garib olmasın
Hasret oduna yanmasın
Hocam kimseler olmasın
Şöyle garib bencileyin
Bir garib ölmüş diyeler
Üç günden sonra duyalar
Soğuk su ile yuyalar
Şöyle garib bencileyin
Hey Emrem Yunus biçare
Bulunmaz derdine çare
Var imdi gez şardan şara
Şöyle garib bencileyin
