Seek knowledge, O seeker of knowledge,

Translated from Uzbek · Original text

Seek knowledge, O seeker of knowledge,For knowledge is the conqueror of ignorance.But if, becoming learned, you do not knowWhat being human is, what use is knowledge, O you?!Give knowledge, O teacher, never tire,From it the blind of eye will find the light.But knowledge will become a calamityIf you cannot teach a person to be humane!The doors of knowledge will stay closedIf mankind is unworthy of knowledge.Now there is no knowledge, now there is no light,Enough now — only do not slip from your path…Akrom MALIK
