Popis: Introduction. The article deals with two little-known Kalmyk folk songs recorded from Vasily M. Ochirov, a Veteran of Labor, Honored Worker of Agriculture of Kalmykia, Honored Worker of Agriculture of Russia, Honorary Citizen of the Republic of Kalmykia, Hero of Kalmykia. V. Ochirov first heard the songs ‘Evakuats’ (‘Evacuation’) and ‘Akhnrin Dun’ (‘A Song about Elder Brothers’ ) composed during the Great Patriotic War when a teenager. Goals. The paper aims to introduce the unique samples of Kalmyk folk songs into scientific discourse, one of the songs being identified as a lingering one (Kalm. ut dun), the second one — as a short song (Kalm. ahr dun). Results. The genre characters of the songs are complicated enough; they describe real historical war-time events (1942). Certain features of these songs qualify them as lyrical-dramatic and even lyrical-epic songs. At the same time, the songs contain verses that may be identified as verbal components of a ritual. The text of the song ‘Evacuation’ contains a refrain repeated words — a curse (Kalm. kharal) against Hitler, and the text of the song ‘Ahnrin Dun’ — good wishes (Kalm. yorӓl) towards elder brothers who had joined the Red Army in the Great Patriotic War.
