Your wrath is pleasant, your grace is pleasant

When you search for the source of our troubles today, you'll encounter headlines like selfishness, selfishness, consumerism, and self-pity. You'll encounter people who begin by asking, "Is that your problem too?" Time passes, and circumstances change, and these people say, "What nonsense I've been worrying about." But they've fallen into the pursuit of another absurdity.

It is time to quote three quatrains from Omar Khayyam:

Don't worry in vain, always smile and live;

Find the truth on the path of oppression and live;

Since the end of this world is nothingness

Know yourself, be free and live.

This world is a two-door inn,

Once a person gets into trouble, he falls into trouble.

It is best to live without being recognized:

Even if you had it, you would never have been born.

What's the problem? Is that what's going to make us cry?

Is he going to tear our flag of joy?

Come, let's throw this out of the heart:

Otherwise, he will create discord among us.

Emir Sultan became famous and respected in the 15th century, and was known for his mysticism. He had a work called "Menakıpname" (Menakıpname). His simple and fluent sayings were his remedy. Let's see where this was:

"Sala was said to the true lovers

Those who are in trouble, come, I found the cure.

While we are groaning with ah and woe

I found the beloved within my soul

Eşrefoğlu Rumi, who lived in the same century as Emir Sultan, was also one of those who found pleasure in suffering for the sake of God's love: "If only I could be free of worry for a moment, I would feel like taking a life ," he says. Another poet from the same century, İbrahim Tennuri, was also one of those who held both God's wrath and His blessings in high esteem:

"Crush the soul or make loyalty

Your wrath is pleasant, your grace is pleasant too

Either send trouble or cure

Your wrath is pleasant, your grace is pleasant…”

Kul Himmet was one of the 16th-century poets known by the names Pir Sultan and Shah Hatayi. He was one of those who felt their troubles always present and fresh in the caravan of life.

"Youth is like summer, husbandhood is like beauty"

My heart is heady, my troubles are fresh

Bow down and serve the master

Satan did not find a way with the self

Kul Himmei's bunch of roses in his hand

He always mentions God on his tongue

I loved beautifully on the path of God

His dream did not fade away from his heart.”

Deli Boran, one of the 19th century Turkmen poets, prays to God in one of his prayers regarding troubles:

My God is Almighty, Almighty / Don’t give this trouble to your servants / I know how to bear it / Don’t give this trouble to your enemies // Those who suffer know the ones who suffer / What does the one who looks back know / The one who flies and breaks down the dam / Don’t give this trouble to the floods // Crazy heart from the violet / Troubles come from all four corners / Winds blow from every oak / Don’t give this trouble to the branches // Crazy Boran burns and collapses / Turns into ashes and falls to the ground / It retreats from Urum to Damascus / Don’t give this trouble to the waists …”

Ashik Muhibbî's real name was "Kaya Salih." He was born in Erkinis Village, Yusufeli District, Çorum Province, in 1923 and died there at a young age. In his poems, he complained about the pain of love:

" Listen, my friends, let me explain

This love is bigger than seventy-two troubles

It burns the fire like a moth

This love is a fire that never goes out.”

Kangallı Ruhsatî, one of the most influential poets of the 19th century, says in his poem that even troubles are changing, in which he laments the changes of the time he lives in:

" There came a time when our day

It is not clear who is brave, it is not clear who is brave

Everyone is looking for a cure for their wounds

The cure is not clear, the problem is not clear ..."

In short, people always find something to worry about. Don't believe those who say they have no problems, and listen to Aşık Veysel:

I have various ailments, I have no cure

I couldn't find any cure

My goal was to find a friend and talk

Sorrow and gloom surrounded everywhere

In tomorrow's article, I will give examples from Veysel again.
