Çanakkale nerde Suvermez nerde
Her ana dayanmaz bu zalım derde
Ahmed'in babasız eğlenmez evde
Yoksa yavrum seni vurdular m'ola
Kefensiz gabire goydular m'ola
Hücum etmiş Alamanın zabiti
Yavrumun kefeni asker kabutu
Salına girmeye yoktur tabutu
Yoksa yavrum seni vurdular m'ola
Kefensiz gabire goydular m'ola
