Kalmyks
- one of the nationalities of the Volga region. They live mainly in Kalmykia. Kalmyk (or: Oirat) language belongs to the Mongolian family of languagesThey don’t take a leopard by the tail, but once they take it, they don’t let it go. The maid has to suffer, but the lady has to prosper. Wealth is until the first snowstorm, the hero is until the first bullet. A lively cow is not given horns. There is no more skill, there is no jewelry. A large stone is hit with a small stone. If there is profit, there will be costs. If you had a head on your shoulders, there will always be a hat. There is no truth in slander, there is no good in lies. There is no dirt in the ocean. In the land of the blind, close your eyes; in the land of the lame, cross your leg. In the dark night, the road is far away. The rope breaks in the place where it is thin. Riding on a calf you cannot reach the nomad camp; reading fairy tales will not make you a scientist Water goes from source to mouth, crime returns to the criminal A crow, imitating a goose, entered the water and died Stretch your legs along the length of the litter A stupid person talks about what he drank and ate, a smart person talks about what he ate what he saw and heard Speak a word to someone who knows Speaking words to a person who does not understand them is the same as throwing grain on the horns of a cow A loud dog does not bite A mountain torments a horse, anger torments a man A mountain hawk flies to a mountain, the son of a wise father speaks in proverbs Two ram's heads you can’t cook in one cauldron For the ocean and a drop of addition He who thinks about the future is a sage, who repairs old things is an expert Don’t ask a bad person: he will say it himself A bad person talks about what he drank and ate, a good person says what he saw and heard If the child does not cry, the mother does not give breasts If your hands work, then your mouth works If your companion is blind, then you close one eye If your neck can stand it, it’s better to have a big head, if your body can hold you, it’s better to have small legs Life is good long, gatherings are short Reaping what you sow , they receive what they gave. Notches on a tree are not erased, the spoken word is not forgotten. Winter, no matter how warm it is, is still winter. Know a lot, but say little. Gold will not hide in the dust. The one who walks will master any road. The one who walks will cross the steppe. From afar it moos, butts close up. You have tail - wag, you have reason - think The boar will not rip the belly of the boar No matter how strong the tree is, it will bend under the weight of its fruit No matter how the frog jumps, it is still in its puddle When the golden eagle becomes decrepit, it begins to hunt for the mouse When two eagles fight, feathers for the shooter When there are many shepherds, the sheep die When there is no dog and the pig barks The end of the wind is a storm, the end of the fun is a quarrel The cow does not know the taste of sugar A bone that falls into a dog’s mouth does not come out intact The eloquent is in front, the unskilled in speech is behind Who not in a hurry, and he will catch up with the hare on the cart. Where the front cart turns, the back one will go. Lungs today are better than lard tomorrow. A bird of prey is recognized by its beak; a person with a sharp mind - according to the words Better a little, but good, than a lot, but bad They aimed at a crow, but hit a hedgehog A baby who fell on his own does not cry Talking a lot is no use, talking a little is wise An ant is small, but he is digging a mountain The thoughts of a mother are with the children, the thoughts of the children are in the desert A mouse that is destined to die plays with the tail of a cat There is no foolish judgment On kind words and a snake crawls out of a hole A thousand others can slip on the droppings of one camel Don’t hope that the horse is quiet - you’ll find yourself on foot Do not offend by calling him bad: you cannot know what will happen; do not flatter what is good: you cannot know what it will be like. The fire under the ashes is invisible.

ON THE ISSUE OF STUDYING KALMYK LULLABIES Mandzhieva B.B. ________________________________________ Federal State Budgetary Institution Kalmyk Institute for Humanitarian Studies RAS

Born at the request of the previously mentioned yorels, Born with the blessing of the Heavenly patrons-hare, Master of the fleet-footed horse, My son, named Ulan Khongor, You lie in a wide cradle, Made of red sandalwood, Sucking a white sheep's tail [11]. The performance of the lullaby is reflected in the plot of the Kalmyk fairy tale about Budigar-Mergen-batar. According to the plot of the fairy tale, the hero Budigar-Mergen, while searching for his sister, Bogdan Kelchin Kokul, passed by one of the wagons and accidentally heard a lullaby sung by an old woman:
Buvagin өvrәs uygsn mini, Tied to the horns of a cow, Bulmin kirmar tsuglsn mini, Wrapped in a worn diaper, Budһr Mergni zelәni, Budigar-Mergen's nephew, Bogdan Kolchin Kokulani. [Son] Bogdan Kölkín Kökülä.
