Kyun Chomchuuk

Eles Bootur the Great
My elder brother,
Bowing to you ninety-nine times
I’m greeting you!
I’m Kyun Chomchuuk,
The daughter of divine people.
Having travelled so much
Hungry you are, indeed.
Tired you are, really.
There is a soft bed to lie on,
There is plentiful food
To satisfy you,
I’m asking you to be a guest,
To be a welcoming company
To have a heart-to-heart talk.”
“She is so nice
Looking at me softly,
Asking so sincerely
It’ll be not a great sin
If I get her invitation
To have a rest, to eat a little.”
Thinking so, he went into
That he didn’t notice himself.
As soon as he entered
The beautiful girl lovingly
Led him by the hand
To the right bed.
He thought it was the bed,
But suddenly he fell head over heels
And falling down, he saw
It was the abaasy-girl,
Grinning and mocking at him,
Her disordered hair
Closing her face,
She started to cry out:
