Emirdağı birbirine ulalı.
Altın yüksek parmağına dolalı.

What kind of grammar is this??

And also (from the same song)

Sana bir hal olmuş gelin olalı.
Kız iken sevdiğim sen değilmiydin.

What is "sen değilmiydin"?

I don't know what exactly means but I can say that some türküs are like that, no meaning... Just for suitable at last syllabels of the line and for the harmony...

"sen değil miydin?"= "was she/he not you?"
kız iken sevdiğim sen değil miydin
"Were you not she (the person) who I love when (you are) a girl"
