On a warm October morning in 1923
I was born at the place where the rocks are perpendicular to the soil
I am the son of a rock father and mother Mother earth loving fertility
The earth mother is silent, but the earth mother is full
Mother Earth Mother Earth Mother
Reviews My father, his right and left are not clear
Plays a roar from the ground
There would be cracks in his chest
Would say for him
Reviews For him countless big and small
There are rock fragments in this land
And you are my son
And you son of the rocks
You will keep this stone together
Reviews Not easy being the son of the rocks
The wind blowing from the north
Against the scorching heat from the south
You will protect them
Not easy
Not easy being the son of the rocks
Reviews On a warm October morning in 2023
I woke up with a slight numbness in my legs
And like a hundred years old grand plane tree
I started to take root that morning
And for the first time on my left, right
Reviews I noticed other plane trees that have been standing for centuries
A light daybreak rose from the east
And centuries-old plane trees also took me in.
And on a warm October morning of 2023
The birth of a son of a new rocks
We sailed together


Barış Manço's LP, featuring 2023 was released in 1975. The entire story is instrumentalized in three pieces, 2023, 2024 and 2025. The first part, the narrative in which the story of the son of the rocks (Kayaların oğlu) is told, is full of symbology and ciphers. The culmination of the series of works in the psychedelic genre and implicit ciphers is Dönence, published in 1981.


Barış Manço passed away before seeing these days. However, we are now in the years he pointed to and dreamed of. Peace be upon the owner of secrets.
