Translated from Uzbek · Original text
God created this world andMade the world a dwelling place for man.So that they would support each other in joy and grief,He bestowed friendship upon man.What is the condition of friendship? That is, whenDoes it begin to sprout in pure hearts?The spring of friendship is kindness, believe me,Through kindness winter turns into spring.If you give love to a tree, to a flower,If you even show compassion to animals —Settling into your heart like loyal friends,They will surely share pure feelings with you.But there is a truth — as wide as the world,It reveals the value of kindness:No kindness can ever equalThe kindness a person gives to a person.So, in the moment the light of kindness shines,Friendship flourishes, the heart blossoms.But there is another truth in the world,Of which you must not remain unaware.To befriend a person selflessly and purely —What a great deed it is, what a noble work.But just think, and be fair —If God calls you “My friend,” what state is that?!God's friendship is greater than anything,That friendship cannot fit into the earth and skies.It is such a blessing, blessed and auspicious,It's worth shouldering any burden for!..But where is the key to this friendship?How can one become one whom God desires?O friend, know this, and let the world know —Gratitude and patience are beloved to God!Through patience and gratitude every human beingWill be honored with the friendship of God.Say “Allah,” and cry out to no one else,Angels will come in rows to serve you.Flee from the ungrateful, spreading your wings,In fleeing be the wind, be even lightning.But wherever you find a grateful person,Be his friend, be as close as his own heart!Akrom MALIK
