(arnau ólen)

Batpaqsuat ózenning bergi beti,

Su alugha kelinshek barghan kezde,

Batpaghy sәl tobyqtan asar edi.

Kóktemde asyp tasyp, jarqyrasa,

Jaz kezinde balyq sholpyp jatar edi.

Batpaqsuat Ghafudyng tughan jeri,

Demepti eshkim "Zamanynda bolar seri"

Jaghagha keshe qonghan oshaqty ýiden,

Estiledi, jas kelinning "Besik jyry".
