Every human is a boon!<br />

I like the following lines of Alisher Navoi: “Cypress, rose <strong>and</strong><br />

tulip have their own buyer, firewood is sold even it is dire”. The<br />

words of wise men are like remedy <strong>and</strong> they cure illnesses: A writer<br />

gives his newly published book to his friend <strong>and</strong> says: “Read <strong>and</strong> tell<br />

me, which book is more interesting, my or that of another writer?”.<br />

Alas! He lost his reputation with these words. Because, jealousy<br />

have appeared there. It means, hope will be destructed in this place.<br />

Jealousy comes after arrogance. If a man meets some capable man<br />

<strong>and</strong> worries about it, he is called an arrogant. Arrogance wastes<br />

away the talent of the people. When writing the fruits of talent on<br />

the paper, the talent will be busy with himself as if he holds fire.<br />

However, he never compares or thinks about to write better than<br />

someone. He will only tries to extinguish his fire in heart. Such<br />

wonderful moments will not be given to everyone. People who<br />

reach to this point will never be jealous.<br />

Do you remember the fact that eminent Navoi finished<br />

“Khamsa” (Five epic poems) <strong>and</strong> Hussein Boyqaro put him on his<br />

horse, holding in leash <strong>and</strong> demonstrated him among the people?<br />

Let’s analyze this event: firstly, Hussein Boyqaro shows humanity<br />

<strong>and</strong> patriotism as king - he is very glad that Turkish language raised<br />

to the world scene because of this work <strong>and</strong> his contemporary.<br />

Secondly, thus he puts the <strong>poet</strong> that raised reputation of the nation,<br />

higher than himself <strong>and</strong> with this he encourages literature <strong>and</strong> all<br />

creative forces. Thirdly, seeing one of the miracles of God in Alisher<br />

Navoi, he gratifies to the Creator <strong>and</strong> takes care of the dear man<br />

for God’s sake. Fourthly, he also was great <strong>poet</strong> <strong>and</strong> psychologist<br />

<strong>and</strong> he feels that a beautiful work like “Khamsa” will become very<br />

esteemed. Thus he puts Navoi to the saddle of triumph. However,<br />

the horse that Navoi rode was his own, symbolically, it may be said<br />

that Hussein Boyqaro was the first who voted Navoi as the king of<br />

country of lyrical poems - ghazals. Despite the king put him on the<br />

horse, this luck was written in <strong>poet</strong>’s destiny. However, Hussein<br />

Boyqaro was applauded <strong>and</strong> prayed by his contemporaries for his<br />

merit.<br />

Every human is different in the world. Some people are capable<br />

<strong>and</strong> the others are not so. But everyone has its own place - an<br />
