Some people think they win by scaring everybody. It’s not winning. When you have no clear conscience, people don’t deal with you any more as there is no reasons for people to deal with ghosts.

Chinese think they’ve won. What have they won? Respect, admiration, love? No. People don’t want to deal with them, don’t know how to deal with them anymore after using every possible means to help them to become responsible global players who respect human right, who can respect fair trade rules. But China has taken all others’ kind efforts in opposite directions.

Uyghur Song by Tash Polat

There's Judgment for Humanity

Goodness and evil would be judged,
There's Judgment for the Humanity.

Dont say it's wheat,
When it's actually hay.
There's judgment for humanity.

Rich people aren't considered wealthy,
Merely based on their materials.
Pretty people aren't considered moon,
Merely based on their look.
There's Judgment for humanity.

Don't indulge in other's generosity,
There's Judgment for Humanity.

Whether celebrating wedding,
Or mourning for loved ones,
We would all face judgment Day.
There's judgment for humanity.

When mourning for lost ones,
Remember the coming judgment day.

Uyghur Song "My Fair Lady" by Esqer Rejip

My Fair Lady

The sky is foggy,
Under moonlight.
Will my heart find comfort, oh my God,
Without my true love, My fair lady?

How can I endure the flame of your love,
My fair lady?

I'd better go out under moonlight,
To play my tambur (instrument) whole night;
My fair lady.

I went to your home,
To get a glimpse of you.
You were combing hair,
Leaving me outside alone.
Why? My fair lady.

I'd better go out under moonlight,
To play my tembur whole night.

I can walk away turning my head,
Holding stones in my both hands.
But my fair lady, how can I leave you,
Holding tears in your eyes?
How can I endure the flame of your love?

I'd better get out under moonlight,
To play my tembur whole night.
Hey my fair lady,
How can I endure the flame of your love.

I'd better go out under moonlight, my God,
To play my tembur whole night,
For My fair lady.

In this song it describes two lovers can't meet, except getting the glimpse of each other. The man reached tipping points in frustration, seeing his lover in tears, not knowing what to do.

Uyghur song "Grateful" by Memetjan Abduqadir

Grateful

I am grateful for living in peace today,
I am grateful for seeing sunlight.
Without relying on others,
I am grateful living on my own.

I have cried, fallen many times,
I am grateful for getting up again.
I am grateful to be alive,
Walking around freely still.

I am grateful for rolling sleeves up,
And being able to start again and again.

I am grateful for smiling with hope,
Without drenched in tears for good.
Without draining my friends,
I am grateful of bearing my sorrow.

I am grateful to eat my own portion,
Though it's little, it's blessing still.
I am grateful for trials,
I still live with thankful heart.

I have cried, fallen many times,
I am grateful for being able to get up,
Rolling sleeves up again to start.
I am grateful to be alive,
I am grateful walkin around freely.

This is beautiful Uyghur, Tajik song. It's not Chinese song. Chinese songs don't have such variations. It's sung beautifully in English translation by Sofia Kallgren.

【Why Are The Flowers So Red 】 By Sofia Källgren Adapted From Chinese Folk Song《花兒爲什麽這樣紅》Why are the flowers so red? Wish that I knew the secret that's behind...

This is a Chinese proverb "Sitting around a plant awaiting to catch rabbit" ("shou zhu dai tu").

How long will I wait in my dungeon to catch the enemies when the enemies have already unleashed their evil power globally?

Uyghur proverb "Men aldiraymen mangghini, eshikim aldiraydu yatqini."

It means "When I am in a hurry of continuing my journey, my donkey is in a hurry of taking a sleep."

During that time men ride donkey for their journey. When the man is in a hurry to continue his mission, his travel companion, tool wants to sleep, to obstruct his journey. When this man has one priority, his travel companion has opposite mission to distract him.

Uyghur proverb "eshek oliwatsa qongi ghejek tartiptu." That means "when a donkey is dying, some people play fiddle with their butt (maliciously)."

24/03/2021

Uyghurs have a saying "some people scratch their head when their stomach hurts," which means shifting the blame on others, or never knowing where their problems are.

24/03/2021

Uyghur saying "exmeqning eqli chushtin kiyin."
It means "Fool's wisdom comes aftermath," when irreversible damage is done.

When genocide was happening, when I cried out for 7 years everybody laughed, now when everything is gone, they all become heroes.

Aboriginals have been protesting for 270 years.

We have been taught and it's our tradition to never hurt kids and elderly people. (Kichik balining konglige azap bermenglar)

There is a Nesirdin Ependi's story:

When Nersirdin Ependi was traveling, he took a break sitting under a tree. Then one cat came, sit next to him on the fringe of his coat and fell asleep. When Ependi was ready to continue his journey, he didn't want to disturb the cat's sleep; instead he cut the piece of his coat and left.

Real humans do not hurt a child and mother, not even a cat. I don't understand why people treat others worse than treating a cat or dog?

Mr D**g Guo

In the past, there was a man called "Mr D**g Guo," like uncle Sam. On a frosty winter day, he walked past a frozen serpent and felt sorry for it. So he picked that serpent up and put on his chest, covered up with warm coat to help it revive. When the serpent warmed up and started breathing, it ate up Mr D**g Guo.

Can you relate it to current affairs?
