Necip Fazıl (1905-1983)
Pray You thrust a dagger into my shadow My warm blood spreads all over Come and see my country Come and see my headless people
Shed tears to bring in the tide Maybe the ship out will be salvaged Mother bring out the prayer rug And pray pray for us (Translated by Mevlut Ceylan, 101Poems by 101Poets An Anthology of Turkish Poetry)
