A letter to Ms. Angela Kosta [The ambassador of peace, a true devotee of literature, and a humanist with a compassionate soul] From Jahongir Nomozov
This letter flows from the deepest depths of my heart, from the wellspring of gratitude within me. It is a prayer, a plea, and an acknowledgment all at once.
Your life is a palace built from words. Every poem you write, every article you compose, every translation you craft – they are flowers blooming in a divine garden that promotes peace, friendship, and literary thought among nations.
You are not just a writer.
You are a soul-awakener, a heart-connector, a radiant spirit who offers artistic and spiritual solace to humanity.
The call for peace echoing across the world lives in the lines you write.
From Azerbaijan to Albania, from the Philippines to Italy, Morocco to Russia – you embrace a whole artistic universe and raise the banner of literary excellence.
Your heart overflows with light and goodness.
You generously share this light with fellow creators, inspiring their craft and bringing joy to their souls.
With the pen, with truth, with pure literature, you have touched and uplifted more than 45 countries.
You have been honored with numerous international awards,
Yet the most beautiful thing is this: the success and recognition you’ve gained, you never kept to yourself.
You opened doors for other writers, nurtured their dreams with your kindness, and elevated their voices through your belief in them.
How vast is your love for humanity – your sincerity, justice, and generosity!
You have not merely written, you have lived – in every line, in every sorrow, in every joy.
May God reward every good deed you’ve done with happiness, love, and boundless delight.
Through you, I have once again realized a profound truth:
Literature is never just words. It is the garden of hearts, the remedy for pain, the light of hope.
And you – you are the gentle gardener who makes that garden blossom.
With all my heart, I thank you.
On behalf of myself and countless fellow writers, I express my deepest gratitude.
With boundless respect and affection!
- Jahongir Nomozov
