    During the long years of historical development, the people of Mongolia have created many beautiful works that are a unique example of spirituality along with material wealth. As diplomatic relations expanded during the Chinggis khaan conquests, ambassadorships became increasingly specialized. The message to be delivered by the messenger was arranged in the form of short poems and sent to the messenger by heart. This is mentioned quite a few times in the “The Secret History of the Mongols”. Although the study of “The Secret History of the Mongols” has been translated into many languages, researches and translations have been carried out, but there is no study of small-form writings and genres in it. It seems that there are many things that have not been noticed in this text, which is the basis for studying the origin and development of mongolian poems and poetry. Therefore, in the future, it is necessary to deeply study the small form of writing and genre in this writing.
