Yunus Emre tells stories of love's journey
Sultan Ibrahim Ethem
He used to sit on his throne and think day and night before he left his crown and throne.
O Lord, he kept begging me to open the eyes of my heart, but he would not see a cure.
One day he fell asleep in his womb
His eyes were awake while he was asleep
He heard footsteps coming from the ceiling. Then the voices of dozens of people filled the private room of the palace. Sultan Ibrahim Ethem was surprised. He couldn't even bear to call out to his guards. What's wrong with these sounds? Who are these people running on the roof of my palace? Then he saw a man hanging from the window.
He said who are you?
The man replied.
We are the people of such and such a village.
Well then, what are you looking for on the roof of my palace?
The man hanging from that window replied.
We search for our lost cows.
İbrahim Ethem was astonished.
Are you Divane?
Looking for a cow on the ceiling
“You are crazy,” the man replied.
You sit on the golden throne, seek the truth and become wise
Do we go crazy when we look for our cows on your roof?
A very good story for the one who aspires
A very wise word to the one who aspires
