Morgul

Тывалап бижип тур Мөргүл Суму чонум сүр-ле күжү Суларавас быжыг турзун Сүрүг малдың бажы менди Сүрлүг күжү улам өссүн Аймак чонум төлээзи бооп Хамагалап тейлеп ор мен Таңдымайдан өршээл дилеп Авыралдап чалбарыдым

Translation Prayer The force and strength of my district’s people Will not become weak, may they stand firm The heads of herding livestock safe May their formidable power grow more As spokesman of my province’s people I am praying, asking for protection I have prayed asking my lofty mountain For mercy and for protection
