Life
If you are no one's dependent,
Translated from Uzbek · Original text
If you are no one's dependent,If you expect no favor from anyone,If freedom shines within your thought,In your own home you are honored.If, having said a word, you feel no fear,If fear does not chase you waking or in dreams,If, having brought the truth to light,You do not cry out in shackles!..If, toiling and suffering with all your might,You find a treasure by an honest path,If you are safe from robbersAnd feel no vise upon your head.This is how freedom shows itself,This is the adornment of a free life.But freedom has one more rung,Which grants radiance to both worlds.If you discover wings in your faith,If you find deliverance from greed and craving,If you set free from the hand of the egoThe heart that has lost its peace!If you cleanse all that Satan's evil has touched,And not a speck of dust remains,This is the true Freedom of the Most Merciful,In it there is never any humiliation!August 21, 2020Akrom MALIK
