: "I am descending from the castle; if you call, I will come". A Story of the Song

The song, also known as (The Saplings of Niksar), originates from the Tokat region of Turkey. Historically, it is an anonymous folk song that captured the daily life and romances of people living near castle walls (the "bedenler").

Imagine a bustling market beneath the massive stone walls of a fortress in Anatolia. A young man looks up at the high "bedenler" (battlements), where he once caught a glimpse of a woman he loved.

The song captures that bittersweet moment of movement—people coming and going through the city gates, and the feeling of being "burnt" by a passion that makes him feel as fragile as a matchstick ( "Aşkından kibrit oldum" ), ready to be extinguished by a single breath.

: A plea to the castle walls to let those who leave go free.

Musicians like Mustafa Özden and Candan Erçetin keep this story alive by turning these ancient laments of love and longing into rhythmic dances that bring people together.

While Mustafa Özden’s 2024 single is a vibrant Erzurum halay (folk dance) track, it is rooted in a centuries-old Anatolian folk song with a rich cultural story. The Background of "Kalenin Bedenleri"
