No Matter how many there are one – a hundred, a thousand
All the Turkic languages belong to me.
Without warriors nor battles I conquered every country,
From China to Khorasan.
Sugar from the cane of my quill,
Was strewn not only on Khorasan, but also on Shiraz and Tabriz"
—From
Herat to Shiraz: the Unique Manuscript (876/1471) of Ali-Shir Nava'i Poetry
from Aq Qoyunlu Circle
