description: "Būqar jyrau Qalqamanūly was a Kazakh poet at the court of the Middle Horde. He was active at the court during the reign of the Ablai Khan. Although his primary activity was law-making, poetry, and singing, Būqar jyrau also acted as an advisor to the Khan. Because of this, his poetry dealt with broader themes which included politics, the foreign policy of the Khanate, and the life of the Khan."
