jüregi jer bla teŋ bolurğa

/dʒyreɡi dʒer bla teŋ bolurʁa/

Literal translation

for one's heart to become level with the ground

To be filled with sorrow; to grow downcast and grieve.

«Ashat ne jazadı, qalay turadı soldat?» – dep sormay kişi ozmaydı. Ol keziwde ne aytırğa bilmey, igidi dep turama. Jüregim a jer bla teŋ boladı.Nobody passes by without asking, "What does Askhat write, how is the soldier getting on?" At such a moment I don't know what to say, so I keep saying he is well. But my heart sinks to the ground.
Teŋlerimi arasında jüregim jer bla teŋ bolub, türmege kirgenimde, sizni qarıwuğuznu sınağanma.When my heart was level with the ground among my companions, and I went to prison, I put your strength to the test.
