Özet: Dresden and Vatican manuscripts as a text based on declamation (soylama). 17th declamation, which is included in the manuscript and which also includes the story of Kazan’s heroics, is noted as expressed in the language of Qazan. In this declamation, Salur Qazan started describing himself with a metaphorical saying that he was ‘cloud, smoke and misty’. Beginning of the declamation with words about the sky in this way is in harmony with the other declamations in the text. However, in order to resolve these words, it will be necessary to understand the expression of burulma and saralma and what it means by being a ‘cloud’. According to our study, burulmaq and saralmaq is an expression parallel to be angry and the cloud is part of the stereotypes about intimidating the enemy. Such as the lion’s roar, the roar of the cloud is a symbol of wrath which is a glorified feature of heroes. The word bulut ‘cloud’ that describes Qazan, should be considered with the accolades used for Qazan such as kara bulut örgüni ‘black cloud thunder?’ and dumanlı dağ börisi ‘the wolf of the smoky mountain’.
