Lyrics: Dulguun Bayasgalan
You will want to know where I am now
You know
My dear
I was in the cherry tree when mother said to me
“You are only seventeen
You don't know what it means”
So I climbed down and picked the cherries that fell to the ground
I can't carry it alone
So I bury it like bones
You are only seventeen you don't know what to fear
And all we know is what we have to hold and call
My dear
And I will want to know where you are
If you're far or near
I don't know how loud I'll have to sing for you to hear
If I can't marry you I'll go
On my chariot of gold
There is only this I know
I will die before I'm old
