Üsküdar’a gider iken

Üsküdar’a gider iken aldı da bir yağmur
Katibimin setresi uzun eteği çamur
Katip uykudan uyanmış gözleri mahmur

Katip benim ben katibin el ne karışır
Katibime kolalı da gömlek ne güzel yaraşır

Üsküdar’a gider iken bir mendil buldum
Mendilimin içine lokum doldurdum
Ben yarimi arar iken yanımda buldum

Katip benim ben katibin el ne karışır
Katibime kolalı da gömlek ne güzel yaraşır
