NAMAZ
Namaza durduk, dua sesleri yükseliyor
Dışarda kimsesiz rüzgar, yalvarırcasına
camimizin pencerelerini okşuyor
Secdeye vardığımız yer, çok ama çok güzel
Dillere destan kilimler serilmiş, çok ama çok hoş
Cemaat-ı müslimin aydınlıkla dolmuş taşmış
Minareler zikir ile gökleri süslüyor
İnayet inmiş o göklerden, içimiz serin
Şüphe kaybolmuş gitmiş, Allah’a şükür
Sevincimiz güneş gibi nur serpiyor her yere
Ne mutlu bize!
Sevgi akıyor gözlerimizden
Görünmeyen derin dertlerimize deva
Uzak, uzun ve bitmeyen mesafe artık yakın
Komşumuz olmuş, muhabbetimiz yerli yerinde
Mevsimlerimiz sanki elele
Yaz, Kış ve Bahar tamamen yetkin
Zaman hem istifa hem de feragat etmiş
İşte tam biterken bugünkü namaz ve niyazımız
Açıldı yükselen şevk ile camiden o can kapılarımız

PRAYER
We stopped to pray, recognizing
that the sounds of our prayers are rising
The lonely wind outside, now pleading, now blest and blessing
while our house of worship's windows it kept on caressing
The place where we bow down is very, very beautiful
Legendary rugs are laid out, very, very nice and in full
The people of the holy book are filled with light and are awed
Tall towers adorn the skies with remembrance of God
Grace has descended from the skies, our hearts are at ease
Thank God, doubt is gone elsewhere
Our joy shines like the sun everywhere
How happy are we at sunrise!
Love flows from our eyes
For our deep, unseen troubles its a cure we chose
The far, the long and the endless distance among us is now close
Love has become our neighbor, our conversation is on point
It's like our seasons go hand in hand with saints whose glory we anoint
Summer, Winter and Spring are fully resilient
Time has resigned on and renounced what is no longer brilliant
Just as our prayers and supplications for today came to an end
With rising enthusiasm what the chapel up and high did ascend,
the doors of our souls opened up to all to all grief amend
