Kul Fakir Ali Oymak (d. 1938), Alevi-Bektashi minstrel of Merzifon and the strongest voice of the Kul Hüseyin branch: his life and his deyiş.
Kul Fakir Ali Oymak, Alevi-Bektashi minstrel of Merzifon: his discipleship to Kul Hüseyin, devotion to the Hacı Bektaş çelebis, the Gaziler Ovacığı âşıks and twelve deyiş.
The three beauties Kul Fakir sees on his wanderings: images of moon, sun and star, dying before death, and an âşık who reads not from paper but from the heart.
A love deyiş with the refrain "dilber": Bektashi images that see the basmala in the brows and verses in the eyes, the lion-clawed beloved and the hour of union.
An âşık standing at the dâr on Balım Sultan's path: the wish to behold Sultan Cemal, çelebi of Hacı Bektaş, and a deyiş of devotion to Ali and Pir Balım Sultan.
A well-known deyiş with the refrain "incinir mi": the friend's road travelled with love, man as the greatest Mushaf, the nightingale and rose, and the state that cannot be hurt.
A short reproach in eight-syllable lines with the refrain "neyleyim neyleyim": a beloved who does not keep faith, failing limbs, and a grave dug in the Friend's village.
A deyiş of the vow with the refrain "inşallah": the 124,000 prophets, dying before death, coming to this inn three or five times, the Elest assembly and those who came from Yemen.
A plea in eight-syllable lines with the refrain "beni": the âşık calls to the caravan going to the Şah, longing like a bee parted from honey and a nightingale from the rose.
A deyiş of wisdom with the refrain "var": all that is sought is in man, one who strains a thousand seas from one spring, the vow-breaker barred from the cem, the stone thrower.
The âşık's twelve-quatrain pilgrimage deyiş to the lodge of Pîrî Baba: Hacı Bektaş and Balım Sultan, the Kandil, the Twelve Imams and an arrival dated 1341.
Kul Fakir's eleven-quatrain deyiş addressed to Mustafa Kemal Paşa: the War of Independence, the end of the sultanate and a folk âşık's Atatürk as a lion with Zülfikar.
A deyiş of counsel with the refrain "getirir": the brave man who keeps his secret, shunning companions without a path, each bringing his own fire to hell, and the power of sweet words.
A deyiş of the path with the refrain "makbulu": keeping apart from the people of the age, keeping one's secret from the ignorant, passing from duality to unity, servanthood to sovereignty.
