Dear everyone, please watch this very talented young boy who sings from his heart. Tsem Rinpoche
Description of the video:
A 12-year-old Mongolian boy- Uudam (乌达木 Wudamu in Chinese) who lost his parents at the age of 8 in a road accident singing the song-”Mother in the Dream” (梦中的额吉) to his mother at heaven. He seldom talk about his story but when he miss his mother, he will sing this song. Besides, he always dream about his mother, sitting beside him.
The song is in Mongolian, therefore, not everyone can understand the lyrics. However, his singing touched every judges and audiences in the hall without the understanding of the lyrics. He sang out all his love and though to his mother.
A touching song, performed by a boy who got a sad story behind, a voice comes from far Mongolia sending his though to his mother at heaven. A great performance by a 12-year-old boy! He got an interesting and beautiful dream which is to invent a kind of ink that just need a drop to drop on the ground, the whole world will cover with green grass. one more thing to add, his mother wished to see his singing on the stage when she was alive.
when he sings, he made everyone cried….really a touching singing…
The way the song is being sung in the video, displays the deep inner pain and despair this very talented young boy “who sings from his heart”, out of all his love to Mom. Like the blog said, “he seldom talk about his story but when he miss his mother, he will sing this song. Besides he always dream about his mother sitting beside him.” Imagine a 12 year old boy, “Uudam” who lost his parents at the tender age of 8 in a road accident! At least his mother”s wish is fulfilled that he got his blessings singing on the stage to his mother, but let us all further pray that he will be further blessed with a good future life from now-on to be of great benefit to all sentient beings. OM MANI PADME HUM.
My dear Rinpoche,
I understand very little Chinese and certainly no Mongolian, but this video still touched me deeply and to tears.
This afternoon I had the privilege of skyping with both my mother and father back home and I am over 40 years old. This young boy lost both his parents at the age of 8! Oh, tears are flowing as I type this.
At such a young age, he knows something I don’t but something I can feel and have empathy with.
Such and adorable kid, with a beautiful voice.
May he be well, may this terrible loss give him insight and propel him to never harm nobody in his life and only benefit others.
Thank you for sharing this video rinpoche, thank you. It is inspiring.
May we all reflect on it.
With folded hands.

Such a young but strong boy. His powerful voice and song has touched me deeply. Despite loosing his parents at such a young age, he still carries on strong. Really inspiring!
Beautiful exemple of transcending personal pain trough singing as a gift from the heart to others.
Uudam sings through his heart, expressing the pain, sorrow through his wonderful voice. Uudam touches each soul in the show with his heart although no one understand Mongolian language. I am also touched at his expression, and listening to the tragedy he met, make one feel for his pain.
I believe Uudam can touch many more heart and transform the world in to green and peaceful world, his talent and voice is the Magic ink that will make it happen.
I’m touched and inspired by Wudamu. He transformed his personal tragedy into strength and positive energy.
Just lost a dharma friend last night. Not easy to come to terms with the sudden departure. Watching how Wudamu dealt with the loss of his beloved parents does help me in overcoming the sadness.
A beautiful song, sung with a lot of heart by a gutsy boy. Can anyone translate the lyrics into English?
When I was listening to his song, he reminded me how much he really missed his mother whose was no longer with him any more. Felt that strong feeling of how much he wishes for her hugs and cuddle in her arms. I was really impressed by his uncommon dream among boys of his age, to invent a kind of ink that when just need a drop onto the ground, the whole world will cover with green grass. One of the judges mentioned not only having a charismatic look of a royal prince, his singing voice also sound like that of his beautiful uncommon dream which when sung, spread happiness to those who are in despite, unhappy, depressed etc bringing others happiness and joy. Uudam reminds me of somebody who is very important in my life. Born from a royal family and has a similar ‘uncommon’ dream, far wider and bigger. A selfless dream to bring happiness and end the sufferings of others. That person, I’m sure many of us already know who am I talking about. He is no other than our precious lama and an emanation of Lord Manjushri ~ H.E. Tsem Tulku Rinpoche
Very good looking boy with such a fantastic voice that touched the hearts of the judges and the audience,one of the judges even went up to the stage to hug him and gave him encouragement to be a good and useful person in the future.He sang with great feelings that make people tears just rolling down from their eyes even though not many can understand the language but can sense it that he missed his mother very much.He always dream of his mother sitting by his bedside and will sing when he thinks of her.Pray that the boy will get all the supports and love from all the people around him!
