For completeness: The phrase from TKD p. 171 is repeated in TKW, p. 127.
jaghmeylI' DaghIjjaj, qetjaj jaghmeylI' May you scare your enemies, may your enemies run. TKW
In addition, there a shortened version of this: {ghIj qet jaghmeyjaj.} (TKW, p. 65) I'm not sure it's an intended pun, but I used to memorize this word while thinking of a "cat-walk", even though you don't run there. -- Lieven L.
