This Is Mongol (‎энэ монгол билээ‎)

The Hu The Hu

A Proud Anthem of Mongolian Heritage

The Hu's song 'This Is Mongol (энэ монгол билээ)' is a powerful tribute to Mongolian culture, history, and identity. The lyrics are steeped in references to the vast steppes, the legacy of Genghis Khan, and the enduring spirit of the Mongolian people. The song opens with imagery of wolves howling at the moon, a symbol of the wild and untamed nature of Mongolia. This sets the stage for a celebration of the nation's resilience and strength, as the lyrics call upon the spirit of their ancestors to awaken and guide them.

The chorus, with its repetitive chant 'xúy xúy xúy,' serves as a rallying cry, reinforcing the pride and unity of the Mongolian people. The song's verses further delve into the rich cultural heritage, mentioning traditional instruments like the 'khuuraa' and the importance of dance and music in Mongolian life. The lyrics also highlight the connection to the land, with references to the high mountains and the blessings of the earth, emphasizing the deep bond between the people and their homeland.

Throughout the song, there is a recurring theme of reverence for the ancestors and the divine. The lyrics speak of the 'ezen chingis' (Genghis Khan) and the 'өvөg deedsiin' (ancestors), whose spirits are believed to watch over and protect the Mongolian people. This spiritual connection is a cornerstone of the song, underscoring the idea that the strength and prosperity of Mongolia are rooted in its historical and cultural legacy. The Hu's unique blend of traditional Mongolian music with modern rock elements creates a powerful and evocative anthem that resonates with both national pride and a sense of timelessness.
