Where there is no meshrep

Translated by Aziz Isa Elkun

(Uyghur folk music & song, Meshrep*)

Are you playing in the garden
Are you singing like a nightingale
You have loved me before
And now are you going to abandon me?!

I don’t want to go there
I don’t want to play music
Where there is no meshrep!

We came here to throw you an apple
We came here to give a bunch of flowers
Like today’s meshrep -
We came here to play happily.

I don’t want to go there
I don’t want to play music
Where there is no meshrep!
