Having
subordinated the banks of the Mankishlak, Seyhun and Jeyhun and the foot
of Mount Köpet, Oguz Han returned to his homeland. On his return he
invited all his sons and grandchildren for a large banquet. Oguz Han
gave gold, silver, and precious fabrics as gifts. Then he said:
Oh
my sons, I am now old. Death is approaching for me. Listen carefully to
my advice! See my advice as wise words on the way of truth and live your
life in accordance with my advice. Pass my advice on to your children
and your tribe! And may they also follow my advice forever! May they
also pass my advice on to all their descendants. If your tribesmen
conform to my advice, forever and ever, you will be the masters of the
world; no enemy will be able to overcome you! Follow my advice, and you
will not change your religion. Obey my advice, and you will be
prosperous in this life and in the next. If they do not keep their word
and do not follow my advice and orders, they will certainly fall out
with each other. Each tribe will find itself in a different climate, a
different region.
