У юноши из нашего аула
Была черноволосая жена,
В тот год, когда по двадцать им минуло,
Пришла и разлучила их война.
Жена двадцатилетнего героя
Сидит седая около крыльца,
Их сын, носящий имя дорогое,
Сегодня старше своего отца.
| Translation - English
A village youth knew he possessed a fortune,
A black-haired wife, he needed nothing more.
The year the loving couple had turned twenty,
They had to part their ways because of war.
The hero’s lovely wife is now gray-haired,
She sits without her man on their porch.
Their son, a bearer of the dear name is,
On this day older than his father was.
