Alay a Azret anasını jüreginde tük çaqlı bir terslik bolmağanın, anası ol sözleni asırı tınçlıqdan, qayğı izlemegenlikden, jaşın kemsiz süygenden ayta turğanın bilib, kesin basdı.But Azret, knowing that there was not a hair's worth of fault in his mother's heart, that she was saying those words out of sheer peace of mind, out of wanting no trouble, out of loving her son beyond measure, calmed himself.
Atamı egeçi ırazı bolub barlıq edim degenimi jaratmağança köründü da, kesimi basıb, tohtap qaldım.My father's sister seemed not to like my saying that I would gladly go, so I held myself back and said no more.
