Banu (Persian: بانو‎‎ bânu), is a Persian name for girls used in Iran, Afghanistan, Turkey and India. While in Afghanistan it translates to "lady", "princess" or "bride". in India it roughly translates to "little sister".

Yalan

"Yalan" (English translation: "Lie" - as in: not telling the truth) is a song from Turkish girl group Hepsi's debut album, "Bir" (2005). The song features vocals from Turkish pop star "Murat Boz"; Boz, however, does not appear in the video. Yalan follows "Olmaz Oğlan" as Hepsi's second single.

Music video

The video begins with each of the girls contained in a cube along with items of matching the colour. The sequence continues on stage with a dance routine; a screen is then lowered showing the girls performing a different dance routine with a male model while accompanied by Boz's vocals.
