I'm guessing most consider the guessed lyrics of the "victory song" from Birthright part 2 to be either: * assumed to be in some ancient dialect (as an in-universe explanation) or * the worst kind of paramount hol with several random nonsense words lifted from the dictionary and mangled so badly by the script-writers this song is the very reason the term {Dap bom} was coined.
One of my ongoing projects was to; if we assume a song about victory, actually contains the word for victory; that it might be possible to turn it in to a song of mostly meaningful {ta'Hol} that can be sung to the tune, and sound vaguely right if you squint your ears, and take into account the ways the standard latin orthography might be mispronounced by those scriptwriters. Some might be aware of an earlier draft, published elsewhere, that I am now less happy with.

Can you all make enough sense of it that this might work? Any suggestions for improvements, or errors to fix?
Thanks, mupwI'
