THE IMAM WHO SPOKE AT THE CEREMONY REMEMBERED FERDI TAYFUR WITH HIS SONG LYRICSThe imam who spoke at the ceremony held for the master artist at the AKM brought emotional moments to everyone in the hall with his speech. In his speech, the imam included the lyrics of Ferdi Tayfur's iconic song and used the following expressions: "This song is a memory of you for me; even if you leave one day, your memory is enough. Look, here we talked about his memories. We will never stop keeping him alive. Look, while saying 'There are so many things that will keep you alive,' we will actually remember his voice, his memories, and most importantly, the beautiful memories he left for the youth. How beautiful it is to leave a pleasant sound in this dome of the sky, how beautiful it is to be remembered in people's hearts even if we die. Here, how immortality is tasted, Ferdi Baba is before us. May Allah grant us to leave such beautiful memories and such beautiful moments."
