Misol(lar)


Holbuki, bu Qumariq voqeasi uni ikki o‘t orasiga tashlab qo‘ydi: bir tomonda haqligi ochiq ko‘rinib turgan fuqaro, xalq: bir tomonda — puli qo‘p, obro‘lik katta boylar.

Manba: Kecha va kunduz, Cho'lpon

Example(s)


Between birth and death carbohydrates and
Cholesterol-free either/or love and its myriad
Unreliable opposites
And ultimately after all these millennia
Between the devil and the deep blue sea as always
And I shall take the deep blue sea any way
