from Bukhoroi ghazels in Tajik language:

Дӯстӣ кун пешаи худ, бо касе душман мабош,

Бо ҳарифони мулоим сахт чун оҳан мабош.

Корвони зиндагонӣ бар сари роҳи фаност,

Як замоне ғофил аз андешаи рафтан мабош.

Хор бо мижгони худ бояд гирифт аз пои халқ,

Дар ҳавои олами таҷред чун сӯзан мабош...

Ҳосилат чун сарв аз озодагӣ дасти тиҳист,

Дар гиреҳ аз фикри кишту донаи хирман мабош...

Хасмро аз дӯстӣ оҷиз тавон кардан, Киром

Ҳар ки душман бо ту гардад, ту ба он душман мабош.

meaning: "Be friends and do not be an enemy to others. With opponents who are not strong do not be like an iron. The caravan on life is going on endless road. One day do not thing of leaving. You must take thorns from the foot of people with your eyelash. In this world do not be like a needle. Your harvest from empty hand is clean cypress. In difficult moment do not think about seeds and harvest...to make an opponent stronger from a weak friend, Kirom. Everyone who becomes an enemy to you, do not be an enemy."
