I was simply telling about Chingiss Khan's life in the poem. He is a great role model of mine, and one of our glorious forefathers.
When I said,
"Robes crafted from chinese silk
riding swiftly on Khitay horses
golden cups from persia to drink mare's milk
laying each night with Rus' morsels"

I was talking about the spoils of his conquests, as his conquest of china supplied him with endless silk, his crushing of the Khwarezmshahs, with persian gold, his destruction of the Kara Khitay Khanate with the horses he needed, the sacking of Rus with beautiful women.

"The ruler of the earth he was made
By the Sky God who is supreme
for mercy had the nations bade
from the greatest army known to date"

The motto was, "There is only God in heaven, and Chingiss Khan on earth." It was generally accepted that he was the hand of God on earth, just like Attila was deemed to be the representative of God, both by his enemies and the huns themselves.

"The 40 nations of his empire
descended upon the west
and they resisted with force so dire
he had to put their arms to the test"

The mongol empire had many nations in them. Mongols and Turks made up the large majority of the armies while persians, chinese and koreans supplemented them with infantry.

"From the mountains in the east
there comes a hungry beast
it's purpose is to conquer and loot
their leader is cruel to the boot"

The mountains refer to the Altai, from where all of us descend from. The popular legend holds that a female, celestial wolf is our mother.
