Nostalgia – Poetry from Uzbekistan

We could not save our pure emotions,

At last, we parted from them.

Blaming only each other,

We were left destitute, from the rain of happiness.

Nostalgia

Crushing my heart with full of nostalgia,

I am thinking of you again.

Wandering the gardens, wandered with you,

I will tell the flowers, I am in pain.

 

Where is happiness that does not love us?

Left us in a halfway,

Where kindness dreams,

Died before reaching their station.

 

In our sunny sky,

Look, a black cloud is wandering.

Our rain of happiness, when rains hard

The umbrella if separation obscured happiness.

 

We could not save our pure emotions,

At last, we parted from them.

Blaming only each other,

We were left destitute, from the rain of happiness.

***

How do I live alone without you?

When I am overwhelmed with pain,

I clung to your hug, mother.

When I am lost the test of life,

I longed for your love, mother.

 

Sometimes, I fantasize,

I would better you are, my dear.

I this darkness, ugly, evil world,

How could I stand without you, mother.

 

I am glad you are next to me,

A comfort to my heart, an ointment to my wounds.

You are my true happiness in this world,

My sun, my dear, my flood of love.

 

Why do you sacrifice yourself so much?

After all, I am not worth a drop of your tears.

Why you always think of me, not yourself,

When I snow, to your black hair.

 

Even if I do not see you in every minute,

Please take care of yourself, mom.

I ask Allah in my prayers,

Bless you all the time, my heaven.

 

Without you, I am nothing, an idiot,

Freezing with pain, I am cruel.

Tell me, how I live alone, without you,

In a soulless body, I am a simple soul.
