In our research, we compared the era, etymology, versions of mourning songs, one
of the unique monuments of the spiritual culture of the Kyrgyz people, field materials collected
from the people, and mourning songs in literature. Because the status of mourning has been losing
its meaning in modern society. The problem is considered in this way and analyzed on the basis of
ethnographic field materials and manuscripts collected from informants, as well as the traditional
genre of mourning for historical figures of the 19th - early 20th centuries. It tells about the activities of historical figures who fought for the freedom of the people, the Kyrgyz statehood against
the Kokand policy of the Kokand Khanate and the Russian Empire. The author’s personal views
and scientific analysis are also presented as separate conclusions at the end of the article.
