KLINGON VICTORY SONG
Returning from a successful Ritual Hunt with Worf, after exclaiming

bagh Da tuHmoh. ChojaH duh rHo.

ghIH yot quelI'Pa qevas HoH Qa

The above lyrics appeared in the script. The first line was translated
in the dialog as:
[Fire streaks the heavens. Battle has begun.]

bAGH dA TUhMHOH.
