A production of "Uzbekfilm" studio named after Kamil Yarmatov
IDOL
The blowing winds told of an ancient legend:
A proud man lived
with the desire deep-seated
To make an idol in his own image,
And thus, eternal
death to have defeated!
Proud man, you've raised an idol for yourself.
In this prized goal, your life found its fixation.
But look around:
just what have you achieved,
Feting yourself like a god of Creation?
One who exalts his own grandiose conceit
In people's hearts won't kindle love's red heat.
His lot is nought but loneliness; the desert.
Inside a stone, a living heart won't beat.
