I sit, I glare and patiently wait,
I’m angry and tense, I warn you, mate!
Back off! Beware! Don’t push your fate,
One more step, and it will be late!

I don’t fancy blocking yer road,
No, just protecting my abode.
Walk your way now, I’ll walk mine,
Respect my fences and you’ll be fine!

It is alright to be scared

It is alright to be scared!
Just stay there and face the fear.
Things will happen, be prepared,
Don’t we all have problems, dear?
“Life is hard” you keep on saying,
Yes, it can cause plenty of stress.
Will get worse if you stop trying,
Quit adding to it more mess.

Bayrağımız qızıldan

1-2 Musiqi dərsində oxuduğumuz, o vaxtdan yadımda qalan, indiyə kimi həmişə beynimdə fırlanan bir mahnını da yazıram burda qalsın.

I bənd
Bizimdir bu şənlik, büsat,
Bu nəğmədə gülür həyat.
Ana Vətən, doğma ocaq,
Bizik sənə qoşa qanad.
Dəstə-dəstə çıxdıq yola,
Dostlar dedi: — Uğur ola.
Yolumuza çıraq tutub,
Bu göy meşə, yaşıl tala.

II bənd
Göyərçinim, qanad saxla,
Dəstəmizə könül bağla.
Oxu bizimlə şən nəğmə,
Qoy yayılsın dalğa-dalğa.
Gələcəyə etdik səfər,
Dolaylarda güldü səhər.
Bizimçün də yer saxlayın,
Ay zirvələr, ay zirvələr.

Nəqarət
Bayrağımız qızıldan,
İşıqları saçılan,
Ömrümüzə açılan,
Üfüqə salam,
Hey, üfüqə salam!

Salam daşıyan gəmİ

Əbədi saxlamaz səni bu lövbər,

Sən ki, yaranmadın dayanmaq üçün.

Fırtına təhdiddir, incidə bilər,

Durğunluq öldürər səni büsbütün.

* * *

Hazırlaş, özünü bərkit yollara,

Üzməyə et davam, qanad aç uç sən!

Bir də, salam söylə bütün dostlara,

Əgər sən onları sahildə görsən.

You will not be harboured forever,
You are not meant to stay still.
Storms might threaten & hurt, however,
Stagnation, no doubt, will kill.
* * *

Get ready, fix all loose ends,
Keep on sailing, flit, explore!
And say “Hi” to all my friends,
If you see them near the shore.

Happy Dragonfly

Hot summer sun beats down,
On the dragonfly wings.
She’s smiling, there’s no frown,
She loves the lustre the sun brings.

Lonely Flower

Lonely flower, don’t be sad,
Look at yourself in the glass,
Up there it can’t be that bad,
Perhaps you miss fresh grass.

* * *
Stay strong a little bit more,
Till the day your siblings bloom.
This for sure will end your bore,
This for sure will take your gloom.

Repeat After Me

Eat food from farmers markets (…or be a farmer)
Drink good tea each morning (and coffee afterwards 😉)
Read books that make you feel (goodreads is watching you)
Paint, even if you’re awful (just like me^^)
Write, even when you have nothing to say (keep jabbering)
Sit in the fresh air outside (you deserve that much)
Go on hikes (I know, right?)
Swim in lakes and wade in streams (seas are boring 🙂)
Sleep as long as you need (Oh do tell me!)
Work hard at what you love (well, we try)
Work hard at what you hate (touché)
Love unconditionally and wholeheartedly (strikes me as being possibly the hardest one)

Mahnı axtarıram

Məktəb vaxtından yadımda qalan bir musiqini çoxdandır ki, axtarırdım. Yadımda idi ki, bu nəğməni biz eyni zamanda iki dildə, rus və öz dilimizdə əzbərləmişdik. Rus dilində olan versiyanı asanlıqla internetdən tapdığım halda, tərcümə olunmuş versiyanı tapa bilmədim. Azərbaycan dilində olan versiyadan cəmi iki bənd yadımda qalmışdı. Continue reading →

Arıçılar

Posted on July 8, 2014 by Elkhan Asgar under Passion, Social

Kəlbəcər rayonundan məcburi köçkün düşüb Oğuz rayonunda məskunlaşmış bir ailə. Arıçılıq dədə-baba peşələri olduğu üçün çətinliklərə baxmayaraq burada da bu ənənəni davam etdirməyə çalışırlar. Arıların ailənin ən kiçik üzvünə kimi sancmasına baxmayaq, ağsaqqal onlardan incimədiyini və “Bal tutan barmağın da yalayar, bal tutanı arı da dalayar” deyə bildirdi. Səxavətlə məni evlərində qonaq etmək istəsələr də, bir rayonda ən çoxu Continue reading →
