Vocals & arrangement by Farya Faraji. This is a Turkish folk song covered by many Turkish artists throughout the years. I wanted my arrangement to be a mixture of a deeply Anatolian folk sound with more recent Western influences, therefore there is a kopuz and a ney, a very folk, esoteric and Sufi-reminiscent combination in tandem with a Western chord progression that has come to characterise more modern pop-arrangements of Turkish folk music. The maqam of the song is Huseyni, identical to the Western Aeolian with the difference of a microtonal second interval. Lyrics in Turkish: Dam Üstüne Çul Serer Loyluda Yar, Leylide Yar, Loy Loy Loy Bilmem Bu Kimi Sever Halelim Nennide Kınalım Nennide, Belalım Nennide Nenni Bunun Bir Sevdiği Var Loyluda Yar, Leylide Yar, Loy Loy Loy Günde On Çeşit Geyer Halelim Nennide Kınalım Nennide, Belalım Nennide Nenni Şunu Bana Verseler Loyluda Yar, Leylide Yar, Loy Lo
