Aşkın damla damla döküldüğü anda
Gül açıyor bakışlarında
Aşkın kalpten kalpe düştüğü anda
Kanatlarını çırpar yükselir göğe doğru
Uçtuğu kafesten bulur aşk yolunu
Hazır değilim ben, bilirim sonunu .
Bilirim sonunu bilirim sonunu
Bilirim sonunu bilirim sonunu
Aşkın gerçeklere yenildiği anda
Büyü bozulur yol ayrımında
Aşkın gerçeklere yenildiği anda
Kanatlarını çırpar yükselir göğe doğru
Uçtuğu kafesten bulur aşk yolunu
Hazır değilim ben, bilirim sonunu . Bilirim sonunu bilirim sonunu
Aşkın kalpten kalbe düştüğü anda
Bilirim sonunu bilirim sonunu
Aşkın gerçeklere yenildiği anda
