Trust/Ышаныч/Yshanysh
A bilingual free verse poem in English and Tatar. The Tatar version of this poem will be written with both Roman and Cyrillic letters.
Trust feels like
a generous, light pat
on the shoulder.
Trust smells like
a miniature glass bottle
of ambrosial tea tree oil.
Trust looks like
a vast, soothing lake
filled with transparent, renewed royal blue water.
Trust tastes like
a precious white china mug
of pungent, earthy, wholesome, and snuggly matcha green tea.
Trust sounds like
someone softly telling you,
"Everything will be okay. You will not fight your battles alone. You have an army of fantastic people to fight with you".
In Tatar (in Cyrillic):
Ышаныч кебек тоела
юмарт, җиңел
җилкәдә.
Ышаныч исе кебек
миниатюр пыяла шешә
амбросиаль чәй агачы майы.
Ышаныч охшаган
зур, тынычландыручы күл
үтә күренмәле, яңартылган патша зәңгәр суы белән тутырылган.
Ышаныч тәме ошый
кыйммәтле ак кружка
тонык, туфраклы, файдалы, ямьсез матча яшел чәй.
Ышаныч кебек
кемдер йомшак кына әйтә,
"Барысы да яхшы булыр. Сез үз сугышларыгыз белән генә сугышмассыз. Сезнең белән сугышыр өчен фантастик кешеләр армиясе бар".
In Tatar (Romanized):
Yshanysh kebek toela
yumart, zhingel
zhikelde.
Yshanysh ise kebek
miniatyur pyyala shesha
ambrosial' shai agashy maiy.
Yshanysh okhshagan
zur, tynyshlandurushy kul
ute kurenmale, yangartylgan patsha zenger suy belen tutyrylgan.
Yshanysh tame oshyi
kyimmatle ak kruzhka
tonyk, tufrakly, faidaly, yam'cez matsha yashel shai.
Yshanysh kebek
kemder yomshak kyna aita,
"Barysy da yakhshy bulyr. Sez uz sugyshlarygyz belen gena sugyshmassyz. Seznen belen sugyshyr oshen fantastik kesheler armiyase bar".
