Başındaki puşu mudur? Diyarbakır işi midir? Al yanakta diş yarası O da sarhoş işi midir Ezemynen üzmeyinen Yâr bulunmaz gezmeyinen Mezarımı kızlar kazsın Gümüş saplı kazmayinen Sandığımı açamadım Çihezimi saçamadım Bana yârdan geç diyorlar Yâr tatlıdır geçemedim Çayır ince biçemedim Sular soğuk içemedim Yazık oldu gençliğime Bir kız alıp kaçamadım.
