Irik Chuduk

Тывалап бижип тур Ирик чудук Ирик чудук сынмаан болза Кажаа хөрээ туткай ертик Ием күжүр өлбээн болза Ийи карак болгай ертик Хадың чудук сынмаан болза Кажаа хөрээ туткай ертик Хайыраан авам өлбээн болза Карак кулак болгай ертик

Transliteration Irik Chuduk Irik chuduk synmaan bolza Kazhaa xöree tutkaj ertik Ijem küzhür ölbeen bolza Iji karak bolgaj ertik Xadyn chuduk synmaan bolza Kazhaa xöree tutkaj ertik Xajyraan avam ölbeen bolza Karak, kulak bolgaj ertik.

Translation The mouldered log If the mouldered log had not broken One could have set up a fence If my mother dear had not died I would have had two eyes If the mouldered birch had not broken One could have set up a fence If my poor father had not died I would have had eyes and ears
