Yemen Türküsü

From Wikipedia - Reading time: 5 min


Yemen Türküsü is a Turkish folk song (türkü means Turkish folk song) about Turkish soldiers who were sent to Yemen in World War I to fight a battle against Rebel Arabs for the Ottoman Empire. They went to Yemen from Elazığ, a city in the east of Turkey. They all died in Yemen. So after that tragedy, the Yemen song was written by the local people of Elazığ for the memories of soldiers' death in Yemen.[1]
