Lyrics

Tanri bütün kullara rizkini dagitirken
Kimi sirtüstü yatar kimi bosta gezerken
Kul Ahmet erken kalkar haydi ya nasip derdi
Kimseler anlamazdi ya nasip ne demekti
O mahallede herkes gömlek giyerdi
Bizim Kul Ahmet bir gün bir ceket diktirdi — Diktirir ya Mahalleye dert oldu Kul Ahmet‘in ceketi
Kul Ahmet erken kalkar haydi ya nasip derdi
Kimseler anlamazdi ya nasip ne demekti
Herkes gömlek giyerken Ahmet ceket giyerdi
Konu komsuya dert oldu Kul Ahmet‘in ceketi
Mahalleli kahvede muhabbet pesindeyken
Leylekler lak lak edip peynir gemisi yüklerken
Kul Ahmet erken yatar sabaha ya kismet derdi
Kimseler anlamazdi ya kismet ne demekti
Herkes gömlek giyedursun
Bizim Kul Ahmet ceketini birde astarla kapativerdi — Kaplatir ya Mahalleye dert oldu Kul Ahmet‘in ceketi
Kul Ahmet erken yatar sabaha ya kismet derdi
Kimseler anlamazdi ya kismet ne demekti
Herkes gömlek giyerken Ahmet ceket giyerdi
Konu komsuya dert oldu kul ahmetin ceketi
Bir gün bir yoksul öldü üzüldü mahalleli
Ama bir kefen parasi bulamadi mahalleli
Kul ahmet dedi dedi yalan dünya cikardi ceketini
Örttü garibin üstüne kaldirdi cenazeyi
Sonunda herkes anladi ya nasip ya kismeti
Bizim kul Ahmet birden oluverdi Ahmet Bey
Ceketse Ahmet Bey‘in Ceketi
Ibret-i alem oldu Ahmet Bey‘in Ceketi
Sonunda herkes anladi ya nasip ya kismeti
Ibret-i alem oldu Ahmet Bey‘in Ceketi
Megerse tüm keramet ceketteymis be Ahmet
Baris‘a sorar isen sen bu yolda devam et

Lyrics translation

When the Lord distributes his Rizk to all his servants
Some lie on their backs, some walk around
Kul Ahmet used to get up early.
No one could understand what it meant.
Everybody wore shirts in that neighborhood.
Our servant Ahmet sewed a jacket one day - Diktirir or the neighborhood was trouble Kul Ahmed's jacket
Kul Ahmet used to get up early.
No one could understand what it meant.
Ahmet wore a jacket while everyone wore shirts
The subject was trouble to the neighbor Kul Ahmed's jacket
When I was in the neighborhood coffee shop chasing chitchat
While storks chatter and load a cheese ship
Kul Ahmet went to bed early in the morning or said kismet
No one understood what kismet meant
Everybody wears shirts
Our Kul Ahmet jacket bird lining kapativerdi-Kaplatir or the neighborhood was trouble Kul Ahmed's jacket
Kul Ahmet went to bed early in the morning or said kismet
No one understood what kismet meant
Ahmet wore a jacket while everyone wore shirts
The subject was trouble to the neighbor ahmetin kul jacket
One day a poor neighborhood grieved to death
But he couldn't find a shroud money from the neighborhood
Kul ahmet said he said he lied the world removed his jacket
He covered it up and lifted it up on the poor.
In the end, everyone understood either the share or the part
Our servant Ahmet suddenly became Ahmet Bey
Ceketse Ahmet Bey's Jacket
Ibret-i alem was Ahmet Bey's jacket
In the end, everyone understood either the share or the part
Ibret-i alem was Ahmet Bey's jacket
Megerse is in all the wonder jacket, Ahmet.
If you want to ask Baris, go on down this road.
