Songs and pictures that give people who have lost their place and their people nostalgia and melancholy

There are some songs that were written about the Turkish Invasion (July 20, 1974), about the houses, the properties and the people that have lost because of the Turkish Invasion.  These songs give people who left behind their place nostalgia and melancholy while they are listening to them, especially to the people who have lost their people, either they have died unfairly or they are still missing.  But these songs are songs that they have loved, songs that remind us of the beautiful places that they stole from us but still remain in our hearts.

The songs are the following:
