Summary/Abstract: The tradition of minstrelsy; it is one of the most important elements that keep Turkish culture alive in the oral tradition. It carried traces from the pre-Islamic era and continued its existence with the transition from geographic, religious changes and the tradition of kamlik to the tradition of poetry. The tradition of minstrelsy, which is the work of a rich cultural accumulation that is based on the life of the Turks before Islam and takes the names of bard, kam, baksı, asik according to the geographical regions they live in, extends from Central Asia to the Anatolian geography and reflects the social, cultural, geographical, historical, customs, customs and traditions of the centuries, It has existed in areas such as coffee houses and teahouses and has survived to the present day. The minstrels, who say what the public does not say, who see what they do not see and hear what they do not hear, have been the spokespersons and defenders of the people in this tradition. One of the spokesperson of the society, who has rejoiced, missed, loved, and went abroad, is Aşık Özlemî, who lived in Gümüşhacıköy district of Amasya. In this study, the life, minstrelsy and poems of Aşık Özlemî will be examined in terms of content. Aşık Özlemî is a lover who says hello to life in the land where it grows, gets married, works in the land where she grew up, and is also a lover whose reputation has spread throughout the country by creating an audience in her own geography. It will be the first in the field of study addressed to introduce Özlemî. Thus, the recognition of the light by future generations and its importance within the tradition will be emphasized. It is thought that this study will shed light on the future scientific studies. This study will especially prevent the erosion of the minstrelsy tradition created by the conservatory minstrels that emerged recently. Reflecting cultural value judgments and master-apprentice relationship, the lover will be recognized by scientific circles. Thus, the minstrels will contribute to the formation of the corpus.
