I П PETR OGOTOEV

Timir Djigistei the Great
Standing in front of you,
If you want to know
My descent and birth,
My father is unfortunate
Sollong Buurai,
My mother is dare-devil
Egei Buurai.
My cousin is a great witch
Khaan Sarakhaidaan,
My sister is Syrbai-Kuo,
Quick and cunning,
Stingy and garrulous,
Smart girl she is, indeed.
If you want to know
The aim of my coming to you:
Your beautiful sister
Having eight-sagened hair,
Captured my bold heart.
I’d like to take her to my bed,
I’d like her to be my wife.
For this purpose
I came from unknown place
Leaving behind the remotest place,
Opening eight closed bolts,
Getting over nine obstacles,
I came to be a son-in-law
Putting on my best attire,
I’m waiting for you eagerly
To come out to greet me,
To hold my horse by the bridle,
To invite me into to take a seat
On the best place of your dwelling.
If you don’t want to greet me,
Don’t distract my attention,
If you don’t want to invite me,
Don’t delay me,
Wearing her best attire,
Having eight-sagened hair,
My beloved beauty, Aitalyyn-Kuo
