Derviş Bağrı Taş Gerek [English translation]

Being a saint requires getting stoned

Requires eyes full of tears

Requires being slower than sheep

You can't be a saint

You can't find the truth

Oh My dear Lord

Bless us with your love, dear Lord

Requires hands that do not hurt others

Requires a tongue that doesn't swear

Requires being careful

You can't be a saint

You can't find the truth

Oh My dear Lord

Bless us with your love, dear Lord

Without getting at the right place

Without ending up with a teacher

Without getting to the truth

You can't be a saint

You can't find the truth

Oh My dear Lord

Bless us with your love, dear Lord

Oh Saint "Yunus" come now

Make us swim deep into the sea

Without swimming deep into the sea

You can't be a saint

You can't find the truth

Oh My dear Lord

Bless us with your love, dear Lord
