of ,,Oliy Majlis’’( House of Parliament) of the Republic of Uzbekistan. In 2001 his
,,Selection’’ was published. Muhammad Yusuf could perform turning the poem into
and flying the poem high. In each word of the poet’s verses there are patience and
willingness to fly. The great love, undischarged duty, the non-execution of the
unrespected love, the faithfulness of sonness to the country-are based on the poems of
the poet. Muhammad Yusuf died on the 31
st
of July in 2001. He was buried in the grave
of his village. Muhammad Yusuf also wrote two epics such as:,, The end of the
Heaven’’ and ,,Dark sun’’. in this piece of writing, it is written about ,, The end of the
Heaven’’ and the translation of the parts of it.
,,The End of Heaven’’
(the piece of the epic)
Where is the end of the Heaven, I said to a wise man. He was quiescent. I really
liked this answer. There is no end to Heaven ,after all! The end of the inflowing is a
river. The end of the river is the sea. And the Heaven has no end. I kicked a stone lying
on the side of the road. There was no sound from the stone. That means I put it to God.
I climbed the apple tree and climbed the wall. The spilled fruit was fun for the ants.
And the dust of the wall became a sin to me. At night, the old man who had made the
wall came into my dream. My sweet sleep was disturbed. Just as the old wall was
broken… The end of the sleep is death. There is no end to death. Even though so there
is …, no one reached him. After all, DEATH is the end of everything. Human’s life is
not always seemed to be a piece of paper lying on the ground. You can see the paper
that you saw on your way to work in the morning and come back in the evening. You
can not always see the person who you saw in the morning. The ant carries the ant’
dead. Biya* grazes looking at her qulun*. The result of love is only lacking of humans.
The earth feeds man. He dresses. And man will one day turn it into a desert. Water is
man’s labourer: it fructifies, it runs a mill. Man does not think of it. Everything in the
world loses its identity as it gets closer to man. Even when a person approaches other
person, he loses more than he finds.
…I ask my grandfather where the sun goes down. To the end of the Heaven, he
says. The sun does not go to the end of the sky, but weeps. The end of the all roads is

mourning . the of the world is Doomsday. It is also…mourning. People’s relatives will
have died until they realize what mourning is…
*biya- the mother horse(in uzbek)
*qulun- the new born baby horse(in uzbek)
Everyone has a different worldview in their thoughts. The poet Muhammad
Yusuf incorporated these feelings into his epic ,,The end of the Heaven’’. If you notice,
the poet addressed everything in his work. The epic tells about the protagonist kicking
a stone and the stone does not make a sound. We can compare that to humans. There
are people in our life who are even if suffering from the evil of someone , they will
never do evil against to him. Because they put it on Allah. And one day God will surely
punish him. A person who commits evil, in this world or in the Hereafter will surely
be punished. The poet mentioned that he broke an apple branch and poured soil from
the wall. So at night in his dream he saw the old man who made the wall. Sometimes
we have such events that we may pick up a beautifully blossomed flower on the street,
for example, without asking. And even if the owner of flower is unaware of it, we think
in our minds that this work is not good, and we see the owner of the flower in our
dreams or we see that something bad has happened because of this work. All of this
stays in our subconscious memory and continues to haunt us. The poet leads us to the
end of every thought. The work is not called ,,The end of the Heaven’’ in vain.
