Sevinch Mukhammadiyeva
The sky protects the stars,
The sea hides its pearls.
A page torn from my notepad,
Save the poems, whose author is mine.
Poetry is not just reading and learning,
It is a sound in the heart.
As a path saves in the field,
As a cane sways in the lake.
Every line is my soul, every poem is my heart,
Forests, birds and clouds are friends of theirs.
A page torn from my notepad,
Save my poems one after another.
May they not a burden for generations,
May not be sad my poems also.
Like the sea, wind and leaf
Let them breathe and smile purely.
Alexander Faynberg’s poem translated by Sevinch Mukhammadiyeva
