Bu Alemi Gören Sensin

Pentagram, also known as Mezarkabul, is a Turkish heavy metal band known for their profound and often philosophical lyrics. In their song "Bu Alemi Gören Sensin," the band delves into themes of divine justice, existential questioning, and the human condition. The lyrics are a poignant dialogue with a higher power, questioning the fairness and rationale behind the creation and governance of the universe.

The song opens with the assertion that the divine being sees everything, with no veil over its eyes. This omniscience is juxtaposed with the idea that this same being allows injustice to prevail, questioning its role in the existence of wrongdoing. The repeated line, "Bu alemi gören sensin" (You are the one who sees this world), serves as a refrain that underscores the central theme of divine accountability.

As the song progresses, it touches on the creation of the universe and humanity's place within it. The lyrics express a sense of abandonment and betrayal, as the speaker feels cast out into the world without the promised generosity of the creator. This sentiment is further explored through the story of Adam, who was expelled from paradise, and the question of why the devil was not destroyed, leaving humanity to suffer in a world with hell.

The final verse brings a personal touch, referencing Veysel, a figure who represents the everyman struggling to understand these cosmic mysteries. The lyrics suggest that human faculties—hands, eyes, and speech—are inadequate to grasp the divine secrets, emphasizing the inscrutability of the higher power's intentions. This song is a powerful exploration of faith, doubt, and the search for meaning in a seemingly indifferent universe.
