Butun gunohi –

«Ko‘k qarg‘a shohi»
Kiyib yurgani…

Dunyo ko‘rkini,
O‘yin-kulgini
Yaxshi ko‘rgani…

Har kuni sahar

Bog‘chaga chiqar
Gullar tergali.

Eriga emas,

– Chunki arzimas! –
Dilga bergali…

Bo‘yniga osib,
Bag‘riga bosib,
Ovungan bo‘lar.

Bir talay g‘amdan,
Hasrat-alamdan
Sovungan bo‘lar…

Oynakka qarab,
Sochini tarab
O‘ziga oshiq…

«Shu yerga tegdim,
Qaddimni egdim,
O‘lganim ortiq!»

Har kun ertalab

Bir talay g‘azab
Er o‘lguridan.

Kunduz nag‘masi
Qayin onasi

Ko‘milguridan…

Qo‘shni kelinchak
Istab halinchak
Chiqib qoladir.

O‘ltirib yerga,
O‘sha kelinga
Hasrat qiladir.

Shunda ochilib,
Xiyla sochilib,
Ancha yayraydir.

Qayg‘uga to‘lsa,
O‘zi jim bo‘lsa…
Dutor sayraydir!..

Andijon. 1925, 25–mart
