Wisdom

Don't burn saying “I,” don't smolder saying “I,”

Translated from Uzbek · Original text

Don't burn saying “I,” don't smolder saying “I,”Don't try to defend your name.Wearing the crown of humiliation and reproach,Know that looking lowly is your honor.We've become known — oh, what a danger!..How savage is the lust to be recognized.If no one ever learns that you exist,That's a thousand times better than the plague of fame.Akrom MALIK
