Yine Bir Gülnihâl

Yine Bir Gülnihâl ("Again a Rose Bush"[1]) is a classical piece within Ottoman classical music. It is a waltz song (meaning it uses the sama'i style, equivalent to the 3/4 waltz Rhythm). and uses the âst makam. It was composed by Hammâmîzâde İsmâil Dede Efendi in the 19th century . He composed the song for Gülnihal Hanım, as a token of his love for her.[1] The composition of this song has occurred within a period of westernisation in the Ottoman empire, which influenced composers of Ottoman music.[2] Violinist Cihat Aşkın has identified the song as "the first instance of a waltz [song] in Turkish music".[3]

The song has been sung by many artists, including Zeki Müren, Barış Manço and Nesrin Sipahi.
