Lyrics
Gülşah gelir naidens ağaç feryadeder vakti seher, her nesneyi koklar felaş feryadeder vakti seher. Ondemde gül handan olur, bülbül görüp nalan olur, derre gidiş olan olur, feryadeder vakti seher. Her nesneyi koklar felaş feryadeder vakti seher. Ondemde in sinan melek, rahsna gelir çarpır felek, hu hu deyup zuhdan semek, feryadeder vakti seher. Her nesneyi koklar felaş feryadeder vakti seher. Hulusi aşık san eğer, dur yasma gel vakti seher, bak gör ki ayan ser teser, feryadeder vakti seher. Her nesneyi koklar felaş feryadeder vakti seher.
