Do Not Reconcile Yourself (1991)
by Ali Karim (1931-1969 )

Do not reconcile yourself to grief,
Or you will become indifferent to everything.
Do not reconcile yourself to happiness,
Or you will become drunk.
Reconcile yourself only with struggle.
You need research, research.
Just think about it,
There's Shakespeare
Shakespeare!

Translated by Aynura Huseinova.
