Gelincik is a song about the arrival of spring, a gentle reminder that darkness is not merely the absence of light, but rather the birthplace of new life.

LYRICS (TURKISH):
Buz tutmuş dalda titreyen serçe
Sen o güneşli rüyanı sakın yitirme
Bahar gelecek bu şehre yine
Uzakta bir yerde gelincik açtı bile
Upuzun gecede
Hep bir özleyiş vardır
Kuytu caddede gizlenen serçe
Sen o hüzünlü rüzgârı sakın işitme
Umut doğacak bu şehre yine
Uzakta bir yerde gelincik açtı bile
Upuzun gecede
Hep bir bekleyiş vardır

LYRICS (ENGLISH):
The little sparrow that quivers on the frozen branch
Don’t you lose your sunny dream
Spring will return to this city
Somewhere far away, a poppy has already bloomed
In the long, long night
There is always a yearning
The little sparrow that hides in the secluded street
Don’t you listen to that gloomy wind
Hope will be reborn in this city
Somewhere far away, a poppy has already bloomed
In the long, long night
There is always awaiting
