Khoyor Dutgiin (probably Nutgiin) Erkh = an old song’s title. I would translate it as “By power of two lands”. “Khoyor” means “two”, nutag” – as explained above. “Erkh” can mean either a “power, right, prerogative” or “spoiled child”. But this is an old love song of the western Mongolian urianhai tribe. A young man is in love with a girl. Her family lives along the Deluun river, while his family live (and move) around the river Senher in Hovd province. They met for a short during the autumn “moving” and separate because they live in different “lands” or “nutag”. Some lyrics of the song: Салья аа гэж ээ салсангүй дээ маанам, Салангад нутгийн эрхээр саллаадаа.
Literally: we've separated not because we wanted to, but because of the power of separate lands. http://www.xyyp.mn/a/8CQqv6etgs/

Uliin Khalzan Davaa = Bold Hills of Ul. “Ul” is the name of one of the hill, or more precisely – mountain’s pass in eastern Mongolia.
