Life
O jewel of my eye, the axis of my love,
Translated from Uzbek · Original text
O jewel of my eye, the axis of my love,O you of sweet words, you of sweet eyes!May the journey of your life pass safe and sound,May you never stumble and fall upon the roads!May the sun of your fortune always shine,May your heart never sink into sorrows.Live overflowing every moment with joy and delight,Never fall captive to moments of pain!Only do not forget, my dear one, my soul,I am no tyrant king who hates the truth!Though my fiery lament may reach the skies,I am no black pit dug for a person.I am a slave, simply, sick of lies,A devotee of truth who bows to honest words.Do not hold out false declarations to me,I cannot bear lies — I am a weed, a straw.Very well, you may keep something hidden in silence,There may be secrets you will not reveal.Everyone is the master of his own tongue,I have no claim at all upon your secrets!Only speak the truth, never deceive,Do not make me drink poison from sweet lies.Let an avalanche come, let the snow bury me,But do not erase the trace of truth!If you deceive, the world will catch fire, believe me,The fire of lies is a spark from Hell.May your deeds never fall into falsehood,Do not speak a deceitful word even by mistake!If one day the light of wisdom fills your heartAnd you should find the manifestation of the Truth,All of it will be the fruit of truthful words,And through true words the world will attain salvation.Akrom MALIK
