‘Your good health, cousin!’ Oyxon greeted him, spreading a cloth on the ground and laying some flatbread on it. ‘Come and have some tea!’ ‘As you wish,’ he replied. He moved to where she had laid out breakfast. Watching the girl get up to return to the house, her slender figure supple as a vine, he surprised himself by calling out, ‘I need your help!’ Oyxon looked around. ‘What for, cousin?’ She said the word ‘cousin’ so gently that Qosim couldn’t help missing a breath at the implications. He could barely whisper: ‘Would you mind holding the ladder? The crossbeams on the stakes are too thin, and I need to tie the vine branches firmly…’ Oyxon spun round to face him. ‘As you wish…’ |
Шу пайт чойини кўтариб Ойхон-пошша келиб қолди. “Ҳормангиз, ака!” – деб сўрашди-да, қўлтиғидаги қийиқчани ёзиб, ичидаги нонни ушатди, чойни пиёлага қуйиб имо қилди: “Чойдан ичиб олинг, қувват бўлади!”. “Майлингиз!”, - деб жавоб берди Сайид Қосим ва дастурхонгача яқинлашар экан, Ойхон-пошшанинг анави гажак-гажак шўралар каби ўгирилиб, уй томон кетажагини пайқади-да, бирдан: - Менга ёрдамингиз керак эди, Ойпошша! - деди. Ойхон бир қиё боқди-да: - Нима эди, ака? - деб сўради. Бу “ака” деб айтган сўзида неларни англамади ўша он Сайид Қосим-йигит, дами ичига тушиб кетиб, қарийиб шивирлади: - Шотини ушлаб туролмайсизми. Ишкомнинг тепаси нозикроқ, шўрани боғлаб олай... Ойхон бебоғ шўрадек ялт этиб ўгирилди. - Майлингиз... |
The tea was left undrunk. His hands trembling with excitement, his breath quickening, Qosim picked up the ladder which lay near the vineyard and placed it against a strong supporting pillar. ‘If you hold it from this side, I’ll have the branches tied to the crossbeams in no time,’ he said. |
Чой ҳам бир чекада қолиб кетди, Сайид Қосим-йигитча, қўлу-нафаси титраганича, ишком тагида ётган нарвонни турғизиб, ишкомнинг пухтароқ бир ходасига тирадию: |
‘That’s what I felt when I was at the top of the ladder, standing over the vineyard.’ Qosim said quite without thinking, and immediately bit his tongue, for he could sense, even without turning round, that Oyxon’s heavy silence was one of embarrassment. |
- Буни мен анови куни ишком устида англаган эдим... – дедию соддадилликда Сайид Қосим-йигит ва бирданига тилини тишлаб қолди, чунки Ойхон-пошша хижолат тортганини ўгирилмасданоқ унинг оғир “уҳ”идан пайқади. |
