Geçer

Serseri Neyzen'in aşkınla kulak ver sözüne,Girmemiştir bu avalim, bu bedyi' gözüne.Cehlinin kudreti baktırmadı kendi özüne.Pir olur sakiy-i gül çehre bakılmaz yüzüne,Hak olur pir-i mugan, sohbet-i hemdem de geçer. Izdırabın sonu yok sanma, bu alem de geçer,Ömr-i fani gibidir, gün de geçer, dem de geçer,Gam karar eyliyemez hande-i hurrem de geçer,Devr-i şadi de geçer, gussa-i matem de geçer,Gece gündüz yok olur, an-ı dem adem de geçer, Bu tecelli-i hayat aşk ile büktü belimi,Çağlıyan göz yaşı mı, yoksa ki hicran seli mi?İnleyen saz-ı kazanın acaba bam teli mi?Çevrilir dest-i kaderle bu şu'unun fili mi,Ney susar, mey dökülür, gulgule-i Cam de geçer,Serseri Neyzen'in aşkınla kulak ver sözüne,Girmemiştir bu avalim, bu bedyi' gözüne.Cehlinin kudreti baktırmadı kendi özüne.Pir olur sakiy-i gül çehre bakılmaz yüzüne,Hak olur pir-i mugan, sohbet-i hemdem de geçer.--------------------------Passes OffWith love, lend an ear to what the vagrant Neyzen saysNeither these worlds nor all beauties have charmed his eyesThe power of delusion hampered a look at his own essenceThe rosy-faced wine-bearer is now an elder, not a sight to seeHe who flares the fire is earth now, claver of intimates also passes.Don’t reckon suffering to be endless, this world also passes offJust like mortal life, day and moment do pass offGrief cannot stay, relieving laughter passes offThe happy era passes off, like the sorrow of mourningDay and night also vanish, and time in its flow passes offManifestations of this life left me broken with loveIs that a gushing of tears or a flood of parting now?May these groans the lowest notes of the saz of mishap beThe film of what happens is shot through the hand of destinyThe reed is silent, the wine spilt off, and the crowd’s humming passesoff.With love, lend an ear to what the vagrant Neyzen saysNeither these worlds nor all beauties have charmed his eyesThe power of delusion hampered a look at his own essenceThe rosy-faced wine-bearer is now an elder, not a sight to seeHe who flares the fire is earth now, claver of intimates also passes.
