XVIII. A poem by Sabina Zhamalbekova.

В нашей стране дорог каждый ребенокМного мальчишек, много девчонок,Кто будет работать на благо страныВедь в Казахстане все люди ценны. В нашей стране есть матери – героини.В Америке об этом не слышали в помине.Нашим же выдают большие льготыВедь у нас не бывает таких недочетов. Our president pursues the right policy because he thinks about our demography. Our country develops very fast, and we have a big contrast between our present and our past.

With care and love we treat our elderly:in our big families they live happily.In our homes they are never neglectedOn the contrary, they’re highly respected.

Ұл- қызын атам қазақ аялаганЕжелден ешнәрсесін аямағанБақытты ер қазақтың ұрпақтары Өз жерін, Атамекен саялаған Қазақтарда бала шектеу болмағанҚызығына сәбиінің тоймағанШілдехана, тұсау кесер, сүндет той,Қыз ұзатып, келін алып, тойлаған. Қазағымның пейілі кең, төзім бар.Сыйластық бар, махаббат бар, сезім бар.“Ұрпағымен адам мәңгі жасайды”.Айтып кеткен пайгамбардың сөзі бар.

Бесіксіз үйде береке жоқ.Балалы үй – базар, Баласыз үй – мазар.Бала көңілдің гүлі, көздің нұры.Үйің үй-ақ екен, ішінде ойнайтын баласы болса.
