I don't Know What to Do from Hands of Love

I don't know what to do 
From hands of love
Let me go on bloody 
From hands of love

Let me give my wealth
Let me attain God's consent
Let me be naked
From hands of love 

Word of Jonah
Became ash his core
Eyes are tearful
From hands of love

My place is montanes
My tears pour always
Steady blood cries
From hands of love


Written by Yunus Emre (Dervish Jonah)
