ГИЛГҮДЭЙ БААТРЫН ХАРУУСАЛ ШҮЛЭГ



Халих харцгайн жигүүр болон одов та, Эзэн минь!

Хангинах тэрэгний тээш болон одов та, Эзэн минь!

Тоглох харцагын жигүүр болон одов та, Эзэн минь!

Тойрох тэрэгний тээш болон одов та, Эзэн минь!

Жиргэх шувууны жигүүр болон одов та, Эзэн минь!

Жиргирэх тэрэгний тээш болон одов та, Эзэн минь!



A REQUIEM OF THE WARRIOR GILGUDEI



You went as a wing of a flying hawk, oh my Lord!

You went as a load of a tinkling cart, oh my Lord!

You went as a wing of a frolicking martin, oh my Lord!

You went as a load of a circling cart, oh my Lord!
You went as a wing of a chirping bird, oh my Lord!
You went as a load of a squeaking cart, oh my Lord!
