- <Eşekni Ardınca Miniş> Afanti eşegini ardınca minep bazarda yürbar, Bir hobun balalar anıñ ardında ireşip sormış: --Afanti dada, sen nege eşeğiñni Ardınca minbür? Afanti yüre yüre demiş: --Men eşeğimni ilince minse, meniñ arqam selerge çevribür, Beyleki volsa selerni men kişi gör yoqdur; Eli, seler meniñ ilimde volsa, selerniñ arqañ maña çevribür, beyleki gelse seler meni kişi gör yoqdur.―"Riding a Donkey Backwards" Avanti was riding a donkey backwards the street, and a group of children followed him and asked strangely: "Uncle Avanti, why are you riding a donkey backwards?" Avanti replied as he walked: "If I am riding a donkey, my back is facing you, which is disrespectful to you; if you run to my front, your back is pointed at me, which is right. I don't respect it anymore.
