Life – Poetry from Uzbekistan

Everything is repetitive, everything is old,
The circle has been spinning since the dawn of time,
The steps of life are faster than anything,
The world is as black as your eyes, empty.

LIFE
Everything is repetitive, everything is old,
The circle has been spinning since the dawn of time,
The steps of life are faster than anything,
The world is as black as your eyes, empty.
I’m behind, you’re in front, in the middle is memory…
The worry that has covered our face…
The heart is forgetting its familiarity…
What I lack is love and air…
It will rain, it will snow
Seasons bring sadness, dust,
Their thoughts are heavy, their moods are narrow,
Can you forget a dildo like you?!
The wind asks, the thunder is loud,
A soul in a distant hut,
The belt is widening, the clouds are close,
The sound of the drops…
I run back, my steps follow,
I wake up startled, it’s all a dream, a dream…
If one day I am absorbed in nothingness, if I leave,
You make me like everything, my dear…
My heart is spreading, the shams are shooting arrows,
A thousand and one birds do things in space,
Chilly summer, cold autumn, dampness is cold
Kuzacks give way to winter…
A epkin in the heart that vibrates like grass,
Full of noisy silence right and left,
Life is slow like tears in the eyes,
The address is the late road between the eyebrows…
The address is a long way between the eyebrows!

To ask for mercy with such tender love,
Your head is like a stone,
How hard it is to laugh and cry silently,
One day we will see our hearts blooming like flowers on the ground…
I have become accustomed to the burdens that tear my neck,
I have stopped caring about the heart-warming encouragements,
I do not trust the promises that the sky kisses,
I have no grudge, I will never hold a grudge against them…Is a small cup of patience,
The depths of my covenant are deep,
Even the kiss of a false lover cannot be erased,
Is the path of life always steep and steep?
I am leaving, my sky is raining heavily,
In every struggle, my shovels have bitten the ground,
Having lost heart from everyone who gave me hope,
I am leaving, life has “planted” me… It’s true that a passenger made a passenger,
A lesson for someone, a fate for someone,
I give a lot, I get a little in this fight,
The height of the heart of a broken heart!
Did I head into spaces like air?
A thousand and one mistakes in the tangled street of thoughts,
Don’t let the winds blow my heart,
Even if I fall, lift me up, God!
***
Wiser thoughts have filled your mind,
Life’s lesson is the most difficult lesson,
Your bosses have led you to mirages,
Sometimes you sow wheat when you don’t reap it!
You have been waiting for happiness from those who have lost everything,
Your life has been tied to a long caravan of dreams,
From those who have collected pearls in your eyes,
Now give up hope and turn to your destiny!
You will laugh at your bitter fate,
Your loved ones who have fallen from your heart,
Your tears that have dried up like the moisture on the tip of your eyelashes,
Your ones that have burned in the chaos of times!
You are a fleeting fragment like a cloud in the sky,
You pour out your heart to the rains,
While I connect my heavy chest to your heart,
If only I could pick your sorrows like flowers…
