Exercise 9. Expressive reading. Read the poem by Abai Kunanbaev “Do Not Believe the Flatterers”. [8. 148]
Do not believe the flatterers, for they
Are certain to betray you one fine day.
Trust only in yourself. A sober mind and toil
Will happiness and weal for your purvey.
Do not believe in sweetly flowing prise
Lest it should make you blind and leave you dazed,
Your worth you should be able to apprise.
If trouble comes, stand up to it, be strong,
If happiness-then welcome it with song.
Look deep into your heart, you will discover pearls, To you alone these precious gems belong. Translated by Olga Shartse
