The aim of this paper is to discuss two previously unknown literary works which depict events preceding the death of two Karaims, Benyamin Turşu and Beraḫa Poyraz. Although laments of this type can be found in critical editions of Crimean Karaim mejumas, their contents and language have not yet been thoroughly examined. The vast majority of mejumas do not consist of original Karaim literature, therefore each work which can be determined as of purely Crimean Karaim provenance should be considered a valuable source of linguistic material.
