Şakiro Dengbej Keke Xiyasedin Deep - song and lyrics by ByAstral

: The song laments how, after Xiyasedîn's departure, the laws of the land changed to those of "foreigners," leaving the local people feeling orphaned and helpless.

: Listeners often describe the track as so moving it can "make one drunk without a drop of alcohol," as it captures the universal human grief of displacement. The Legacy of Şakiro

: The song is dedicated to Kekê Xiyasedîn (Gıyasettin Fırat), who faced intense political pressure and exile following the events surrounding his father's uprising in the early 20th century.
