Wisdom
Your being alive, your very soul and spirit —
Translated from Uzbek · Original text
Your being alive, your very soul and spirit —It is the wellspring of torment and of wonder.You are made of it — it is your all, your everything,It is a branch upon the tree of eternity.In it is love, and longing, and the pain of parting,In it are cries and wails, in it laments.Whenever you look closely into its depths —You’ll see the crimson tulips, red as blood.It is a mighty world, it is a lofty sky,Do not wound it — do not bring the heavens down.Whatever you may do, whatever aim you seek,Do not hurt a heart — never hurt a heart.Akrom MALIK
