"Sürgün" is a poignant Anatolian folk-rock song by the iconic Turkish artist , originally released on her 1992 album, Ziller ve İpler . The lyrics, which translate to "Exile," explore themes of departure, loss, and the pain of leaving one's homeland without the certainty of return. Lyrics (Turkish)

The narrator asks their family and friends to be told of their departure, warning them not to wait because they may never return. A notable emotional beat in the song is the narrator's request to hide the news from their beloved, fearing their "tender heart" cannot handle the pain of such a loss. Selda BaДџcan SГјrgГјn
