Abstract

Muhajir is the Arab word and means “exiled, emigrant”. After the RussiaTurkey war (19th century) Georgian population was forced to leave their own land and seek shelter in a foreign country. This misfortune is the reason why we call Muhajir Georgians to the old Georgians from Adjara, Tao-Klarjeti, Lazistan nowadays.

Nostalgic emotions of Muhajir Georgians deserve interest and attention. Emphasizing their names and faces is essential. At this time let us introduce one very old Georgian.

The author of the poem “Do you know how does it feel to be a Muhajir?” is the ethnic Georgian living in Turkey Adullah Celebioglu (Chelebadze). This poem is the echo of his life.
