The story is about two young persons. A young boy and a young girl in a village in Anatolia.
They love each other madly in a way that if one of them asked to make a tunnel in a mountain like Ferhat, the other would do it.
The boy did grow up without a father and lived with his mom.. In the end the boy tells his story to his mom and the mom would not break her only son's heart so she goes and asks the girl's family for the marriage.
They get married in the end and they start to live in eachother's bosom.
But the army duty knocks on the door and he leaves for the army..The girl and her mother-in-law live in the same house (this is Anatolia..it is normal btw).
But the army duty is long and in the villages, sometimes young and married women with no husbands are magnet for the rumors. They were gossiping about the newly wed bride having a ralation with a man of course. In the end the gossips come into mother-in-law's ears. But she is not convinced.
Army duty is not an easy one..when the level of gossip increases in the village and becomes unbearable, the boy's holiday comes into rescue and the officer tell the boy he can go on holiday to his village.
After days of traveling, the boy arrives to the village at night. When he stops for a rest, he sees two red roses. He picks them up, one for his mom and one for his wife. When he arrives, he does not want to wake up his mom and goes to his bedroom and gives one of the roses to his wife.
Because of the gossips, the mother wakes up in the middle of the night and wants to check his son's wife.
She goes to girl's bedroom and sees a man sleeping with her.
She runs back, takes the rifle and shoots both of them.
When she checks, she realizes she killed her only son and his bride.
Two roses sitting on the side of the bed were for her and for her son's wife.
And this is the story for the song:
