1. The Euphrates whose source is in Rome waters you,
Isn't it cut by the blind Tigris?

2. Who are you, whose father is half a canal,
From Bishkek, how did the land nurture you?

3. Haven't you been satisfied with a plain
From the hut of interest clad with rags?

4. So that you controlled people’s necks
Lowering whom you want, raising whom you want.
