Lyrics

Bir çift turna gördüm Kabe yolunda
Seversen Mevlayı kalma yollarda
Bizi bekleyen var Kabe yolunda
Muhammed'e doğru uçun turnalar, gidin turnalar
Bizi bekleyen var Kabe yolunda
Muhammed'e doğru gidin turnalar, gidin turnalar
Akar aşıklıların gözünün yaşı
Ah ettikçe eritir dağların taşı, dağların taşı
Kudüs-i Şerif'te muallat taşı
Orayı ziyaret edin turnalar, edin turnalar
Kudüs-i Şerif'te muallat taşı
Orayı ziyaret edin turnalar, gidin turnalar
