I think these must be two of his poems or songs?
May the friends remember me
After I pass, my name remains May the friends remember me Weddings happen, holidays come May the friends remember me
Soul flies from the cage World is an inn, settlers depart The moon wanders, years go by May the friends remember me
Body will be deprived of life Hearth won’t burn, smoke won’t rise By armfuls, salutes I pass May the friends remember me
Many blooms thrive and fade Who had laughed, who’ll be glad Desire’s lie, real is death May the friends remember me
Into evening will turn the days Behold what soon will take place Veysel departs, his name remains May the friends remember me.
Long Narrow Path
I’m on a long, narrow path I’m walking on, day and night. I’ve lost my sense of self. I’m walking on, day and night, Day and night, day and night, Day and night.
Ever since the moment I came into this world, I was walking from the very beginning. In a caravansary with only two doors. I’m walking on, day and night, Day and night, day and night, Day and night.
In a caravansary with only two doors. I’m walking on, day and night, Day and night, day and night, Day and night.
When contemplated deeply, It seems far away, when looked at. The road is but a minute long. I’m walking on, day and night, Day and night, day and night, Day and night.
The road is but a minute long. I’m walking on, day and night, Day and night, day and night, Day and night.
Veysel is confused in this state, Sometimes crying, sometimes laughing, On the road to reach my destination. I’m walking on, day and night, Day and night, day and night, Day and night.
On the road to reach my destination. I’m walking on, day and night, Day and night, day and night, Day and night.
