"DaH qagH wISopbej" by SuSvaj

This is an ancient song which truly illistrates the Klingon love of food. It also shows the difficulty Klingons have in understanding why outsiders find Klingon cuisine so distastefull. Although this song is well known on Tera, it's Klingon origens are not known to most Humans. Therefore, it is here given first in it's original Klingon and then in it's more commonly known English.

-DaH qagH wISopbej.-

nuparHa'qu', numuSqu' Hoch,
DaH qagh wISopbej.

gharghmey pI'qu', gharghney langqu',
DaH qagh wISopbej.

Hoch jaj wejlogh qagh wISop,
Do'Ha' 'e' yaj pagh!


Now in English:

-We're gunna go eat worms-


Nobody likes us, everybody hates us,
we're gunna go eat worms.

Great big fat ones, itty bitty skinny ones
we're gunna go eat worms.

Cut 'em open and,
squeeze out the juice and,
throw the tails away.

Nobody understans how we can eat
worms three times a day!
