One of my favourite bands of all time has just released a new song in collab and I wanted to share because it slaps. The Mongolian folk instrumentals come in at ~3:41 like *chef’s kiss*

[sirkazum]

If you're interested: The Hu (obvs), Altan Urag, Hanggai, Nine Treasures, Uuhai, Tengger Cavalry and then Huun-Huur-Tu to relax (I know they're Tuvan, not Mongolian, but still).

everyone go listen to Grassland My Beautiful Home by Hanggai

I absolutely adore this song.

溫順的褐紅馬步伐匆匆 八串珠的頭飾唰拉，唰拉 花褐馬的步伐匆匆 十串珠的頭飾唰拉，唰拉 肥壯的褐紅馬步伐匆匆 六串珠的頭飾唰拉，唰拉 矯健的褐馬步伐匆匆 五串珠的頭飾唰拉，唰拉

(I could only find Chinese lyrics for the song, which is just as well for me since I don’t speak Mongolian, but I make no pretensions about the quality of my translation)

Roughly speaking, the lyrics read something like this:

The docile red-brown horse goes at a hurried pace/hurries along The eight strands of beads/eight-beaded strands? of the headdress swish around, swish around The patterned? brown horse goes at a hurried pace The ten strands of beads of the headdress swish around, swish around The short and stout red-brown horse goes at a hurried pace The six strands of beads of the headdress swish around, swish around The strong and healthy red-brown horse goes at a hurried pace The five strands of beads of the headdress swish around, swish around
