In this study which focuses on the “cem” stages of the Chepni people living in Balıkesir and the roles of “kamber” in these stages, the poems of the “kamber”s were examined in the “cem” order. As a result of the determinations and evaluations, it was seen that after the person who named “dede” and the administration of the “cem” ceremonies in the execution of the Chepni courts, the “kamber”s had a very important importance in order to perform the ceremony. Starting with the stages of the preparations of the ceremonies of the “cem” ceremonies and services in the implementation of the ceremony of the worship of “kamber”s have contributed to the “nefes”. Even in the absence of the poems and music performed by the “kamber”, it is not possible to implement the application in the “cem”. “Kamber”, who are in close relationship with the Turkish folk poetry tradition, often say the poems of the great bards in their ceremonies and do not make any changes in these poems. It has been found that “kamber”s in Chepni districts mostly perform poems of folk poets such as Pir Sultan Abdal, Şah Hatayî and Kul Himmet and do not include their own poems in the “cem” ceremonies.
