I'm fairly certain the second one is in Ushak, but I'm not sure.

The first song is in Hijaz. The melody is that of the Arabic song Qadduk al-mayyas and of the Turkish song Ada sahillerinde.

The second song is, yes, in Ushshak.

Wait, I think I heard a Turkish version of the first song before now that you mention it.

Is this the same one?
