Orphan's lament
(Tuvan)

Oskus le bodum changys la bodum
Opeillimde olyrym kai
Opeillimde olgen boza
Ole sharaa khamaan eves

Kara la changys kuzhur le bodum
Kavalyymda kalyrym kai
Kavailyymda kalgan bolza
Khany la sharaa khamaanna eves

Uiazyndan charylganda
Kushtunna toly keergenchig
Eyezinden charylganda
Kiji le toly keergenchig

Ortemcheinin uulezin
Orteer eves baglaar eves
Olgen avam tyrlla kelgesh
Oorushkunu shannar eves

(English)

I'm an orphan; I'm alone.
Pity I didn't die as a baby.
If I had died as a baby,
I never would have suffered.

I am the loneliest.
Pity I didn't die in my cradle.
If I had died in my cradle,
I wouldn't have suffered.

Pity the baby birds,
Left without a nest.
Pity a baby,
Left without a mother

One's fate,
One cannot change it.
My departed mother,
Nothing can bring her back
