MY SONS
Their playful mischief suits them just so well,
I adore their smiling eyes, their magic spell.
Their sweet little words enchant my heart each day,
May my sons grow into noble men one day.
My eldest, Ibrohimjon, my helping hand so dear,
Isroiljon runs to greet his father with a cheer.
Ismoiljon follows his brothers, strong and bright,
May my sons grow into men of honour and light.
One day they’ll take my daily tasks away,
One day they’ll stand by their father’s side each day.
For these precious gifts, I thank the Lord above,
May my sons grow into men deserving love.
My sons, may you serve your people and your land,
Become devoted men, with wisdom as your stand.
My noble sons, my heroes, my pride and dreams,
You are the hope that makes my future gleam.
May my sons grow into men of honour and light.
Pray that no hardship ever blocks their way,
May generosity guide their hands each day.
And when their wedding celebrations come,
May we dance together, smiling as one!
May my sons grow into men of honour and light.
Ibragimova Orzigul Sharobiddinovna was born on January 5, 1990, into a working-class family in the Tinchlik Mahalla Citizens’ Assembly, Alisher Navoi Street, Uchkuprik District, Fergana Region.
My childhood was spent working hard. After graduating with excellent grades from Secondary School No. 29 in the district centre, I continued my education at the Pedagogical College located in Buvayda District. However, I did not work in my field of study.
Currently, I am a second-year student majoring in Zootechnical Engineering at the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Agrarian Studies of Fergana State University. At the age of 35, I had the great happiness and privilege of becoming a university student.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to my husband, Ibragimov Zafarjon, who has created the opportunity for me to pursue my education; to my dear mother, Muxabbatxon, who lovingly takes care of my three sons — Ibrohimjon, Isroiljon and Ismoiljon — without making me feel their absence; to my beloved father, Sharobiddin; and to my sister, Nozigul, for their unwavering support and encouragement.
May all my loved ones always remain healthy and be blessed with long lives.
Since my youth, I have written many poems on themes such as love for the Motherland, respect for parents, and loyalty to friends. In developing my creative abilities, it is important to acknowledge the valuable contributions of my university mentors, particularly our Faculty Dean, Shuhratjon Mamajonov, and our tutor, Begali Hamraliyev.
Although I may not be able to contribute to the development of Uzbekistan on the same scale as today’s young generation, I firmly believe that, by becoming an educated and knowledgeable woman within my family, I can raise my children to become worthy individuals who will make a meaningful contribution to the prosperity and development of our country.
I believe that education is never too late, and that knowledge, determination and family support can help a person achieve their dreams at any age.
