BIR SANA BIRDE BANA – Baba Zula 


This is the version with Brenda MacCrimmon singing this great song. I recommend 
everyone who is interested in turkish music to watch "crossing the bridge: the 
sound of istanbul" by fatih akin. Anyway that's how i came to find this band. I gave 
it my best shot for the translation of the lyrics, if you have suggestions for 
improvements i'm all ears, though i doubt there'll be many people reading this tab anyway... ;)

As there is no prior tab for Baba Zula, here is the youtube–video for the song,a 
link to the band's website and their discogs profile:
