Kaldýrýnca tabancasýný
Niþan almak için sarý saçlýya
Parýldayýverdi gözleri
Koru kendini
Kýrlangýçlar uçuþtular
Korkudan çýðrýþýp
Kanat çýrparak koru kendini.
Hadi söyle bana müziði seversin sen
Nasýl çalar insan hapishanede
Aðrýlardan, sýzýlardan sonra
Romatizmanýn zincirleri kemirdi elleriyle.
Ýþte niþan aldý tam
Kemanýnýn üstüne
Iskalamaz iyi niþancýdýr
Koru kendini
Ama teller gene þakýdýlar
Doldular havayý titrek titrek hiç umursamadan.
Hadi söyle bana müziði seversin sen
Nasýl çalar insan hapishanede
Aðrýlardan, sýzýlardan sonra
Romatizmanýn zincirleri kemirdi elleriyle.
Havasýz bir delikte
Gýcýrdayan somya üstünde yatakta
Yakalanmýþsýn berbat bir öksürüðe
Hih gel de þarký söyle.
Ama yine de sarý saçlý adam
Devam etti kemaný çalmaya
Dirildi içimizde ölü düþler.
