I am sorry Lena but had it not been for the name of the song i wouldn't have recognized the song either..
Originally its a Greek song but they wrote Turkish lyrics to it (Askin Kederi) and it was sung by Isil German..

Sorry Iceman, never heard that tune before. Are you sure the original is in Greek?

Iceman, I'll be damned if I don't find the Greek version. What does Askin Kederi mean?

Is it this (you've got to get past a lengthy instrumental prelude before you can hear the lyrics)?

Filitsa, when I heard the intro I thought of this song as well but just the 3 first notes` are similar, nothing else even comes close.

My grandfather used to play this on his oud and sing it to me when I was little. Maybe someone can give me a rough idea what's it about, I can only pick a few words here and there. BTW the paintings in this clip are beautiful.

I love this...is like a game...i always win in this kind of games! :lol:

Ok the translation of the title might help as Kafenes suggested but I doubt if the song that Filitsa posted...as Kafenes only the introduction is the same. It really remind me old Greek movies...and that music kind of ring a bell to be...but is very hard! :?
