This song originated from a Horqin modern narrative folk song composed and sung according to real people and events. Xilu is the name of a beautiful girl who married from Horqin to Xilin Gol. The bleak four Hu and the deep horse head qin interwoven the sound of the music, as if the girl Xi Lu and her parents when the farewell duet, told the arranged marriage for the Mongolian young women brought spiritual pain. If a young man rides a horse, he can stay at home with his parents. If the girl is clever, she must be married to a foreign land far away. At the end of the song, the melodious and clear sound of the flute is like a swan goose circling around, flying to the other end of the vast sky with the yearning for the motherland and the helpless fate.
