LOYALTY
If you love and save your soul –
If your heart and body are embedded in homeland,
If you die, and your spirit stays in the earth
And not the sky,
A homeland becomes a handful of prayer.
If your heart and body are embedded in homeland,
If you die, and your spirit stays in the earth
And not the sky,
A homeland becomes a handful of prayer.
-- tr. Asror Allayarov from "The Gate Opened by Angels"
Betende Hände (Praying hands) -- Albrecht Dürer
