El çek tabib el çek yaram üstünden Sen benim derdime deva bilmezsin Sen nasıl tabibsin yoktur ilacın Yaram yürektedir sarabilmezsin Sana derim sana ey kalbi hayın Kimseler çekmesin feleğin yayın Yıkıp harab ettin gönül sarayın Alıp bir taşını koyabilmezsin Emrah'ım dinledin benim sözlerim Muhabettin can evimde gizlerim Ne duruyon ağlasana gözlerim Bir daha yarini görebilmezsin
