Lyrics

Medine'ye giden kervan, develeri yüklü kervan. Rasûlullah'a selam söyle, hasreti bitiren kervan. Rasûlullah'a selam söyle, aşığı götüren kervan. Kervan, kervan, nurlu kervan, develeri yüklü kervan, alında götürün beni, hasreti bitiren kervan. Rasûlullah'a kurban olan, ayağına turab olan, bastığın yerlerde senin bir zerrecik tozum olan. Bastığın yerlerde senin bir zerrecik tozum olan. Kervan, kervan, nurlu kervan, develeri yüklü kervan, alında götürün beni, hasreti bitiren kervan.
