BE VIGILANT
For the dawn awakening of the world,
Open your heart, smile, relax.
Raise your hand up, strive,
Be free from every question.
Convey my regards to the sun, it is a hope,
The fresh sky is your happiness.
What crashed into my mood, was it freedom?
Your flight is your youthful courage.
Don’t crumple if the night appears,
The moon is the cameleer of your life.
Become a brother to fire, you will rise,
Someday you will embrace the sky.
The stars … they are your shiny senses,
Let them sparkle fierce, loosely.
If you want to inflame your traces,
Be awake as a dawn…
Be awake.
--tr. Asror Allayarov from "The Gate Opened by Angels"
