Lyrics
Ey gafil uyan aç gözün, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye. Dergahı hakka tut yüzün, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye. Dergahı hakka tut yüzün, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye. Binbir günah ettin yeter, ruhun siyah ettin beter. İsyanı haktan ne biter, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye. İsyanı haktan ne biter, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye. Buldu ecel feymanesi, ömrün nesi kaldı nesi. Ey cihanın divanesi, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye. Ey cihanın divanesi, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye. Gelmeşçide meyhaneden, hayır gelmez mestaneden. Tehir etmek acep neden, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye. Tehir etmek acep neden, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye. Tehir etmek acep neden, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye. Tehir etmek acep neden, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye. Tehir etmek acep neden, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye. Tehir etmek acep neden, gel tevbeye gel tevbeye.
