Гүзәл туташ гаме
- Гүзәллегем белән бәхетле мин,
Гүзәллегем белән бәхетсез.
Буйсынырдай бер яр күзләп киләм,
Күңелемдә уйлар хөсетсез.
Сезме соң бу, дастаннардан чыккан
Үлмәс каһарманга тиң затлар?
Заманага ак перчатка ташлап,
Дуэльләргә чыгар ир-атлар,
Сезме соң бу?!
Бармы арагызда, шигъри сүздән
Тәкыялар үрер телдәрләр?
Хатын-кызга һәйкәл куяр өчен,
Мәрмәр җанын тыңлый белгәннәр... Читать дальше...

Болгарыма кайтам әле...
Күңелемдә әллә нинди сагыну бар.
Дөньяларга сыймый икән сагынулар.
Әллә нигә күңелем гел канатлана.
Гомерем буе шулай кабатлана.
Изге җирне сагынмыйбыз, йә, кайсыбыз?
Манаралар көтә анда,без кайтырбыз.
Далаларда серле учак ягар идем.
Тарихларны сөйли-сөйли янар иде...
Кайтам инде... ун-унике гасыр аша.
Даламдагы ап-ак ефәк чатыр дәшә.
