   • 18th century, Makhdumquli Firaghi, “Gadryn hiç bilmez [They know not the worth]”, in Magtymguly Pyragynyň Diwany [The Diwan of Makhdumquli Firaghi]‎^[1], volume 1, pages 278–280, lines 29–32:

     یکیت دکیل بر اقرارده دورماسه
     اولاغ قدرین بیلمز کشی آرماسه
     اوردک قوبا قازلار چولی کورماسه
     سرچمن‌لی کولینک قدرین هیچ بیلمز

     Ýigit degil bir ykrarda durmasa,
     Ulag gadryn bilmez kişi armasa,
     Ördek, guba gazlar çöli görmese,
     Serçemenli kölüň gadryn hiç bilmez.

     One who breaks his word is no real man,
     One never knows a mount’s worth until he tires on foot.
     If ducks and gray geese never cross the desert,
     They know not the worth of reed-filled lakes.
