Bilasizmi, qarg‘a qanday bir qushdir?
Sevmaydir yoz, sevgani-da bir qishdir.
Ul sevadir, jonsiz, o‘ksiz qirlarni,
Istaydir ul yana sovuq kunlarni.
Sovuq kundan ajrab qolmas hech bir-da,
Sovuqlikni oxtarar ul tun, kunda.
Kdyg‘a ketsa, qayg‘a yetsa sovuqlik,
Ergashadir ketidan ul yorug‘lik (?).
Qunt qilsangiz, tanirsizlar ularni,
Yoz istamas go‘zal qanotlarini.
Ular bilmas bulbul kabi o‘qishni,
Bari bilar ko‘rganlarin cho‘qishni.
Shuning uchun ul qushlarni netarsiz?
Yoz kelgach-da, bulbullarni kutarsiz!..
