The master musician dedicated the lyrics of the song to his girlfriend and proposed to her right on stage. When Figen replied “Yes,” a thunderous round of applause erupted from both the stage and the audience.
Sibel Can, unable to hide her surprise, turned to the young couple on stage and conveyed her best wishes with the words, “May your happiness last forever.”
