    Water-wheel, why do you moan?
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    I fell in love with the lord,
    That is why I moan.
    They cut off my branches,
    Destroyed all my order,
    Yet, I'm an unwearied poet,
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    I'm a tree of a mountain,
    Neither sweet, nor bitter,
    I'm thankful to the Lord,
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    They found me on a mountain,
    They broke my arms and wings,
    They found me fit for a water-wheel,
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    Yunus comes and finds no joy here,
    No one reaches his desires,
    No one remains in this mortal world,
    For I've troubles, I moan.

    0:07 Instrument: Turkish Cura. Full Song Title: Benim Adım Dertli Dolap=Endless Trouble Is My Name. Song is the voice of a tree hewn into a waterwheel as a metaphor of living to serve a greater good despite life being hard+fleeting. Composer: Turkish Sufi mystic Yunus Emre (1240-1320) contemporary of Rumi. From Eskişehir, 200 miles from Istanbul. His poetry was deceptively simple but delved into mysteries of the divine and being human. Emre employed spoken Turkish of central Anatolia as opposed to Arabic+Persian used by his contemporaries. Emre's poetry lives on as a gem of the language+culture of 13th century Turkiye and Sufi learning thru art and openended questioning.

      It's a special hidden quest, but if you realised you have activated it you should be fine.
      Just keep your eyes and ears open, take head of both the woes and the fruits of opportunity this land affords as it abounds with both, some will likely lead to great adventure but also take care not to become engulfed by them as this could lead to great peril. Make sure to spend your points wisely and some time you may realise when you have progressed in this quest again.

    In early summer of 1994, I crossed the Syrian border at Tell Abyad, pedaling a mountain bike and heading to Sanliurfa to witness Eid al-Adha. That morning, I pulled the bike off the road to adjust the cables outside a village on the E99. As was often the case, locals took an interest in me, with my bicycle festooned with bags and gear. A family gathered across the road and stared at me with curiosity. Among them was a young boy. I saluted them, then turned to work on the bike. Seconds later, a terrible noise, then screams and wails. I turned. The little boy, in his excitement, tried running across the road to reach me. A passing truck struck and killed him instantly.
    Men from the village ran out from their work places and ordered me to pedal off, to leave the place before real trouble began. I dont recall those miles very well, just tears and sweat, heat and confusion. In Sanliurfa, the streets ran with blood. I made it to Balikli Göl, watched the fish meander in the pools, and wept uncontrollably.
    Some gentlemen approached me, and convinced me to follow them to a contemplative place, not a mosque, but something like a study center. It matters not what was discussed. Because it is sung.

    LYRICS TRANSLATION
    The Troubled Watermill By Yunus Emre
    Why do you groan, O Watermill; For I’ve troubles, I groan
    I fell in love with the Lord; For It do I groan
    They found me on a mountain; My arms and wings they plucked
    Saw me fit for a watermill; For I’ve troubles, I groan
    From the mountain they cut my wood; My disparate order they ruined
    But an unwearied poet I am; For I’ve troubles, I groan
    I am The Troubled Watermill; My water flows, roaring and rumbling
    Thus has the Lord commanded; For I’ve troubles, I groan
    I am but a mountain’s tree; Neither am I bitter, nor sweet
    I am but a pleader to the Lord; For I’ve troubles, I groan
    Yunus, whoever comes here will find no joy; Will not reach his desire
    Nobody stays in this Transient; For I’ve troubles, I groan

    Almost four years ago I found and wrote down the English lyrics to this video. I found them today and had forgotten about them. I will post them below, in a rough translation compiled between several sources--it is a poem that was written many centuries ago by the poet Yunus Emre'nin, titled Dertli Dolap, about a waterwheel. My life has changed so much in four years since finding this video. I have moved countries, married, started a new life in a new home. But I often still feel as though I am the same as the water wheel. Turning, torn down, broken, and only moving in place. But there is beauty in this world, like this lovely song, and there is a melancholic beauty in the struggle of life. A sadness behind the words that can translate into hope. Thank you again for this beautiful song and video.
    Waterwheel, why do you moan?
    For I am sorrowful, that is why I moan.
    To the Lord I've given my soul,
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    Troubled water-wheel is my name,
    My water flows pure,
    As the Lord wishes thus,
    For I am sorrowful, that is why I moan.
    They found me as a mountain tree,
    They broke my arms and cut my wings,
    They thought me fit for a water-wheel,
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    From a mountain I was brought down,
    Neither sweet, nor bitter, am I,
    A devoted of God, am I,
    For I am sorrowful, that is why I moan.
    They felled my trunk and carved my branches,
    Every piece of mine to be remade,
    Yet, this commandment came from God,
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    I lift my waters high, I turn,
    Only to pour them low,
    They do not see this burden I carry,
    For I am sorrowful, I moan.
    Yunus, he who comes and finds no joy here,
    His expectations never to be met,
    As none can remain in this fleeting world,
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    Dervish Yunus,
    Tears shed sin,
    I'm in love with God, I swear,
    I descend for Him.

      However I had just auto translated the Turkish version rendered by Yusuf Gencen in the comments, and realised your version seems to be missing a last verse? Perhaps this is another version, but this was the last verse:
      Derviş Yunus eydür ahı,
      Gözyaşı döker günahı,
      Hakk'a aşıkım vallahi,
      Onun için inilerim.
      Which auto-translates as
      Dervish Yunus Eydur ah,
      Tears shed sin,
      I'm in love with God, I swear
      I descend for him.
      I think that verse changes the meaning of the song profoundly.

I don't know, maybe it's because I'm going through a bad period of my life. But it helps being that way. And I kind of like it I guess. If we're going to disappear some day, I guess making this music is one of the best things a human being can do. Far from the fakeness of daily life and far from unimportant daily problems.

    Seven years ago, I visited Turkey for my first and (so far) only time. As I was walking through the old part of the city with a friend after dark, we stumbled upon a small meyhane (pub) in a dark alleyway. There were only three guys at the table, one of which played this instrument. We decided to grab a beer and listen to him. He was playing a melancholic tune and singing. It was one of the best cultural experiences I've ever had in my life. I couldn't get that melody out of my head for days and to be frank, I didn't want to.

    (loosely) Based on the translated lyrics
    By the creek in summertime
    In the morning of my life
    Sat I beside a moaning wheel
    And watched the water rise
    Turns I to the water wheel and asks
    Why do you cry?
    To my surprise a moan rose up
    And shared with me a sigh
    I am troubled cried the wheel
    I am troubled so I moan
    Once a giant tree was I
    With arms stretched to the sky
    The wind kissed at my fingertips
    And sang the song of life
    A thousand years I grew and grew
    And sang with all my might
    I wished to bask forever
    In the sun’s eternal light
    Then the children of my mother came
    And taught me about pain
    They tore me from my mountainside
    And cut me into planks
    I am troubled, cried the wheel
    I am troubled and I moan
    They deemed me as a water wheel
    And here I am to stay
    And here I turn around and round
    Every night and day
    I lift the water from below
    And turn and pour it high
    But the river has forgotten me
    For I am not alive
    I am troubled cried the wheel
    I am troubled and I moan
    None attains his true desires
    None of us can outrun time
    It matters not what one acquires
    None stays in this mortal life
    There is no laughter in this story
    My tale is one of grief and woe
    The end for all is mandatory
    never more will this tree grow
    I am troubled cried the wheel
    And that is why I moan
    I am troubled cried the wheel
    We all must die alone

      I don't have any experience with turkish culture nor language, but I did find out after a quick search that this poem has many different meanings. Here's a second one, with light differences.
      I'm an aggrieved waterwheel
      My water is flowing splashingly
      This is the decree of Deity
      For I have griefs, I groan

      I'm a tree of a mountain
      neither sweet nor bitter
      I'm grateful to God
      For I have griefs, I groan

      Waterwheel Why do you groan
      For I have griefs, I groan
      I've fallen in love with God
      That's why I groan

      They found me on a mountain
      They broke my arms and wings
      They deemed me fit for a waterwheel
      For I have griefs, I groan

      Carpenters carved all of me
      All my parts were assembled to me
      This commandment came from God
      For I have griefs, I groan

      I carry my water upwards
      Then I pour it downwards
      No one knows what I carry
      For I have griefs, I groan

      Yunus, who comes doesn't laugh in this world
      No one attains his desire
      None abides in this mortal world
      For I have griefs, I groan

    DOLAP NİÇİN İNİLERSİN
    Water-wheel, why do you moan?
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    I fell in love with the lord,
    That is why I moan.
    My name is troubled water-wheel,
    My water flows pure,
    Thus, as the Lord wishes,
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    They found me on a mountain,
    They broke my arms and wings,
    They found me fit for a water-wheel,
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    I'm a tree of a mountain,
    Neither sweet, nor bitter,
    I'm thankful to the Lord,
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    They cut off my branches,
    Destroyed all my order,
    Yet, I'm an unwearied poet,
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    I take my water from below,
    I turn and pour it high,
    See what i suffer from,
    For I've troubles, I moan.
    Yunus, comes and finds no joy here,
    The tree will never grow,
    No one remains in this mortal world,

Little did we realize, when after all the gold, fine silks, expensive perfumes, spices and goods were collected and sold, and we all parted ways, the company we kept, the hopes and dreams and sorrows we shared were worth much more than all the treasure in the world.

    For a historical context, the poem by Yunus Emre was written in 13th century Anatolia during the Mongolian invasion of Seljuki land. Brutal nature of the invasion, death and destruction is reflected as a heavy dark tone in lyrics. Escape to spirituality and questions about the God and fate are also present in poems like "I asked the yellow flower" by Yunus.

    Lyrics are from a poem of old Anatolian sufi dhervish from 13th century called Yunus Emre, which I happen to carry his name.
    Here is my rough translation:
    Water wheel, why are you moaning?
    I am troubled, therefore I moan x2
    I fell in love with the Lord
    Thats why I moan x2
    My lumber was cut in the mountain
    And my peace is therefore destroyed x2
    I am an unwearied poet
    I am troubled, therefore I moan x2
    I am a tree of a mountain
    Neither sweet nor bitter x2
    I am prayerful to the Lord
    Therefore I moan x2
    They found me in a mountain
    Tore me into pieces x2
    They deemed me as water wheel
    Thats why I moan x2
    Yunus, none laughs in this (story)
    None attains his desire x2
    None stays in this mortal (life)
    I am troubled, thats why I moan x3

      Sounds sad, and the lyrics confirm this. I think of standing in old Ottoman empire, listening to this. Oh, and thanks ❤️

    This song profoundly moved me. It was around 2 AM when I opened RUclips in search of guitar music videos. Suddenly, I stumbled upon this particular video, and it felt like a serendipitous encounter-it was as if the video found me as much as I found it. There was something about the melody that piqued my curiosity, evoking emotions of both pain and sadness, yet somehow intertwined with feelings of peace and freedom. Perhaps, the latter two were emanating from the serene and breathtaking location where the artist was situated, accompanied by stunning animals that harmonized with the melody at certain points throughout the video. The way the artist sang, coupled with his striking white hair, was simply captivating. I had to pause the video at one point, allowing a few tears to fall-it’s an experience that stirred me deeply.
    Thank you sincerely for sharing your beautiful rendition of this song. 🙏✨
