A year later he was transferred to an orphanage in Dushanbe - is one of his teachers was the legendary Lahuti.
As the best student teacher college Mirzo sent to continue his studies at the Tajik Institute of Education in Tashkent. Mirzo only 19 years old when, having finished education, he began his career in the newspaper "the Komsomol Tojikiston" and included in the core of the Komsomol, the Soviet Tajik writers created dehot, Ulug-Zadeh, Mirshakar. "I was only nineteen and twenty years for the new life we ??have not fought only in verse," - recalled Mirzo. The beginning of his career occurred in the turbulent years of the first five. He not only sang of spiritual beauty and moral rise of the working people's heroism, but it was a direct participant. Perhaps there were no more or less large construction projects, wherever Mirzo not write essays for their paper. He responded in verse on the achievements of workers farm fields, conquerors of new lands. The heroine of his first poem "The Sun of the country" has become a schoolgirl Mamlakat Nahangova, awarded the Order of Lenin for record cotton harvest. The first book Mirzo Tursunzade "Banner of Victory", "Autumn and Spring," "Poems" signaled that the Tajik literature has come a great original poet.

In an interview with "Truth" on the occasion of awarding of Hero of Socialist Labor poet said: "My main theme was the theme of freedom remains. It seems to me a very broad, capacious. Freed man - that's the main character of my poems. "Mirzo Tursunzade became the herald of a world without oppression and colonialism, a world without wars and violence. Art and politics were to Mirzo Tursunzade inseparable. He is one of the initiators of the Afro-Asian solidarity. More than twenty years, he headed the Soviet Committee of Solidarity with Asian and African countries. Roads are the meridians of the planet of his poetry.

He went all over the world not only as a traveler, but also as a poet. His voice was everywhere - in the Indian hut, and in the Spanish boat fisherman.
Friendship of Peoples, which is devoted to poetry Mirzo Tursunzade - not "on duty theme" imposed from the outside of Tajik poetry, as trying to present some modern writers. This theme - an essential tradition of classical poetry from Tajikistan, Rudaki to and from Saadi Ahmad Jami to Donish. It is for Tajik literature, such as eternal as the theme of love for his native land. At the anniversary party M.Tursun Zadeh in Moscow, his friend and colleague, Nikolai Tikhonov suggested that to this day hardly anyone will dispute: "Mirza-zade ... Trusn - perhaps today - the first poet of the East." He managed to combine both poetry and politics, as is characteristic of a true artist, "the world and all mankind and responsive." The historical fate of the East, who took in the Tajik literature 20-30 years a prominent place, the object of intense apprehension in the late 40's and then in the next decade. Sharing the suffering of the oppressed, responding to them in full voice, welcoming the victory of freedom fighters (which was typical for Lahuti and Payrava) M.Trusun Zadeh went on to develop an international theme. He did not confine the individual events, and tried to identify and understand their poetic social-political pattern, consider the national-liberation movement in the whole of his problems.

I did not consider themselves entitled to write an opera whose text is written in Tajik. A. dehot poet, who owned the great Russian language, too, probably, it would be hard to write a poem in that language. "

Soliev - vocal-symphonic poem "The Voice of Asia", J. Abdulloyev - cantata Yu.Ter Osipov, created the ballet "The Son of the Motherland", A. Odinayev - symphonic poem, "My Hissar ".

Emphasized that we are infinitely obliged to the motherland for all the blessings that will never, under any social formations have not seen our predecessors, and especially the long-suffering Tajik people. He never tired of repeating that the most precious, that nature intended - a man and his need to love. In Tursunzade had my interpretation of the concept of "internationalist." The poet said: "To be an internationalist, equally we must love and respect yourself, then your family and loved ones, then people and the peoples of his country, and, finally, the people of the entire planet regardless of skin color, religion, language and race."
