saint
"hidr" is not Turkish. I believe Arabic translation is "saint".
In this context it might be just the name of the girl in the room. Though for this to be the case, there should be a comma after "denen".

Al-Khidr / deus ex machina / St. George
"An immortal person Muslims believe to come in time of need." One of the "d" letters in Arabic is a vibrating "d" therefore the same name was transliterated into Turkish as Hızır as well.
Also the spring celebration "Hıdrellez" is the time believed to be when Al Khidr & Elijah (Ilyas) meet.
