Feeling sorry about something.
सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
In Turkey, if you cannot host a guest properly or offer them food, it is a matter of great shame and personal regret. Many folk songs deal with 'dert' and 'gönül' (the heart). Regret over lost love or unfulfilled promises is a central theme. There is a strong cultural expectation to help the elderly or the poor. Failing to do so often triggers this idiom. Turks generally have a soft spot for street animals. Seeing a hungry animal is a very common trigger for this phrase.
