To understand "Ay Çapması," one must first understand the album it belongs to. By 2009, Sezen Aksu was no longer the young girl singing about the olives of the Aegean coast. She was in her mid-50s, an elder stateswoman of music. The album Yürüyorum Düş Bahçeleri'nde is a deeply introspective, dreamlike work. It is less concerned with chart-topping radio hits and more concerned with the texture of memory.
This is the heart of the song. The protagonist realizes that the problem is not just the man; it is the entire gravitational system she lives in. Earth is not big enough to escape the pull of this memory. She fantasizes about finding another planet—a literal escape from the laws of physics and emotion. But she knows she cannot. Because, as she sings, "O da dönüyor / Ben de dönüyorum" (He is spinning / I am spinning, too). We are all trapped in the same solar system of sorrow. Ay Carpmasi- Sezen Aksin
