10. Singing Saule

A familiar voice came from somewhere, breaking the silence and sounding unusually beautiful.

Ataq recognized Saule’s voice as she sang a popular Qazaq song. The words of this melodious song could be clearly heard — it was obvious that she was singing into a microphone.

For a while he stood frozen, listening to her soothing voice...

Instantly there was a flurry of applause. The wrestling fans woke up and began to congratulate the champion of today’s final competition.

But the only thing the champion wanted now was just to listen to that wonderful voice! Barely escaping from the crowd, Ataq ran to the stage.

The audience was listening silently to Saule singing: A few of them nodded to each other, discussing the vocals of this unknown performer.

Saule was the only European among those present, singing in an amazing voice to the accompaniment of a dombra.

She played the dombra badly, but it didn’t spoil the melody. Everything sounded exactly as it was intended by the composer.

The people around Ataq were wondering who she was, but no one knew anything about her. They nodded their heads, admiring her voice.

Ataq had wanted to show off his protégé, but now he only wanted to listen to her sweet voice and hang onto each note of the song.

He didn’t hear anything else. When a guy ran up to him with questions, he didn’t receive any answer from Ataq. Not understanding what he was saying, Ataq only shook his head to get rid of him as quickly as possible. This was the first time that the runner had met a Qazaq who refused a horse.

Ataq made his way through the crowd and stood right in front of the stage. He wanted Saule to see him, so that their eyes would meet at some point...

“Oh, if only she could see her eyes now... their unearthly beauty, blinking in time to the music,” Ataq reflected.

But the girl’s eyes were directed towards the high mountains: they rolled upwards as if she were in a trance, and then she squinted, looking into the distance.

Ataq was struck dumb and the only part of his body that he could move was his eyes.

When he lowered his gaze to her hands, he spotted the dombra in them. His heart ached, and a pain ran throughout his body — he saw that it was his dombra.

There was a lump in his throat, breathing became difficult, and he felt something warm and wet running down his cheeks...

He listened in tears to the last notes of the song...

There was a terrible roaring in his ears and through his tears he could see that Saule was bowing to the audience...

Only after he wiped them away with his sleeve did he begin to hear the applause of the audience. People rose from their seats and clapped loudly for the girl.

His heart was filled with pride for Saule. It seemed to him that this song only sounded beautiful when she performed it.

While all the attention of the audience was focused on Saule, Ataq decided to pour out his heart.
