Said when an affair has reached its last stage and everything is now ready.
- Meni ol efendige nellay bir zatım ketgendi! Ketgen zatnı alay qoysam da, kesim nellay bir qıynalğanma! Endi, iş qız qaçhanŋa jetgen zamanda, andan duwalarımı alıb, nasıbımı körmey qalay qoyayım?How much of mine has gone to that efendi! And even leaving aside what I spent, how much I myself have suffered! Now, when the matter has come to its final stage, how can I give up without getting my charms from him and seeing my happiness?
