Zileli Ceyhunî

 Zileli Ceyhunî

His real name is Ömer, son of Çördük. He was born in 1847 in Zile's Çıkrıkçı neighborhood. Ceyhunî was a skilled saz player who played the 12-string çöğür with a deep, resonant, and beautiful voice, which captivated everyone. He earned his living as a master minstrel through his saz. He was trained by Tokatlı Nuri, the apprentice of Erzurumlu Emrah. He took his pen name from his mentor, Tokatlı Nuri. Throughout his life, Ceyhunî either performed his own poems or played and sang the poems of his beloved masters, Tokatlı Nuri or Erzurumlu Emrah. He did not recite the poems of any other minstrels.


Ceyhunî's affiliation with a Sufi order can be deduced from some of his poems, as noted by Cahit Öztelli. Therefore, he gained recognition and a wide influence in Tokat, Çorum, and Yozgat regions, where he was known by names like Ceyhunî, Ceyhunî Baba, Baba Ceyhunî. He had a broad worldview as a master minstrel who solely focused on poetry and music. He performed and traveled extensively in village halls, weddings, associations, military send-offs, and minstrel coffeehouses, gaining a well-deserved reputation. Due to his colorful personality, he was greatly loved by the people of Yozgat and Çorum, and whenever he visited, he would stay as a guest for months.
