Ko‘kargan yaproqlar og‘ochlar uzra
Jilmayib, quvonib yayrab tururlar;
To‘xtovsiz eskuchi — kuchli shamollar
Bularni ayashib, sekin ururlar.

Og‘ochlar yam-yashil yaproqlar ichra
Ko‘milib, jimgina pusib o‘ltirar:
Ko‘klamning yomg‘uri yoqqach bularga,
Ko‘zlardan oqquchi yoshday miltirar.

Kim bilur, bu yoshlar balkim chindanam
Og‘ochlar ko‘zidan chiqib tomadir:
Ko‘klamning bu erkin mazgillarini
Doimiy emasin yaxshi biladir…

Kuzning u qop-qora, sovuq tuslari
Balkim og‘ochlara yomon ko‘rinar;
«Koshki ko‘rmasaydik!» — deb shu kunlarni,
Boyaqish yaproqlar g‘amdan sarg‘ayar.

Qayg‘urmoq yarashmas, bo‘shdir qayg‘urmoq!
«Ko‘klam bir kelmas», ey go‘zal yaproq!..
