Rubais by Abdukakhor Kosim

[Translated from Tajik by Khaibatullo Shodieva]

Poets are as the nation’s slogan,

Are the ever spring rosary.

The honor of poet is till thousand years,

They’re the robe of honor 

and dignity of nation.

□

You are with me in my joy and sadnes,

Sometimes you are under my hands 

on bonds.

Yeart goes out, 

I’ll pour your blood,

My pen, 

you are my sweet heart!

□

For the poet, 

good verse in a whole world,

If there is more letters, 

is expensive.

Just a good name is enough 

for him,

Other his jobs are for people.
