Genghis Khan’s classic and popular songs (11–20)
Tut Ench AmunGenghis Khan
This number is themed around the boy-king pharaoh of Egypt’s 18th Dynasty.
Many aspects of his life and related facts remain shrouded in mystery, and his existence still attracts intense attention today.
Let’s listen to his extraordinary fate arranged in the Genghis Khan style.
Kaspar HauserGenghis Khan
The song tells the story of a real person, Kaspar Hauser, a German orphan.
He is said to have been confined in an underground cell until he was taken into care around the age of sixteen, and his background has been explored from various perspectives.
Despite the theme, the relatively bright tone of the music is a relief.
SaharaGenghis Khan
It’s a song that depicts the scorching, blazing landscapes of the Sahara Desert, featured as a track on the B-side of an album released in 1979.
It praises the burning world—ah, what a fiery world!—and portrays the desert’s beautiful nights when the stars seem to rain down.
The passionate violin rings out, conveying the grandeur of the desert.
Rom (Glorious Rome)Genghis Khan
A song by Genghis Khan praising Rome, the city of history that is loved forever.
It speaks of a past of repeated battles, yet still of proud dignity, and it tells us movingly that when Rome—when you—weep, even the gods weep.
The refrain “Rome, Rome, Rome, the most beautiful city!” repeats in a beautiful harmony.

Dschinghis Khan is also famous as a song danced to around campfires.
It was the debut track by the German music group Dschinghis Khan, inspired by Genghis Khan, the ruler of the Mongol Empire who is revered as a hero.
The chorus in particular builds to a festive, night-time atmosphere, and it’s the kind of song that will lift your spirits even more while jumping rope! With its relatively fast tempo and frequently changing mood, it’s best suited to intermediate and advanced jump-ropers who are getting used to rhythm jump rope.
