The dancing of the Tauren Warrior
The skies go dark as Ronut blows out Draun the Sun
Shadow goes deeps and cries "Darkness has won!"
The fire starts and welcomes the shadows
The tribe is ready to celebrate the coming of spring
Taurens comes out, out of their tents
Then the cheiftain, Klarus, and to his wife his hand he lends
They all shout "Hail Klarus our cheiftain and his mate Trona!"
The feast begins, the fire burns and finally the spiritman comes forth
He sings, sings about the making of the all
The making of Olongo the Tall
"Hail to Olongo Spirit of Spring!"
Then the dance can begin
It is time to see who will be the new Tauren Warrior
Behold, the young Taurens exit the Holy Tent
All gazes in their eyes, proud fierce eyes, and make their head bent
The spiritman shouts "Behold! The Worthy! The Young!"
"Let them dance now and let Tarum choose in his spirit song.
Choose who will be the new Tauren Warrior!"
They dance, dance to the beating drum
"Dum Dong Dum!"
They dance in the night, the fire casting their shadows
Shadows darker than Ronut herself
They all see as the Worthy is possed by the Holy Ones, the Spirits, the Gods
Obno Spririt of Plants, wife to Olongo, and Santaul Spirit of Earth
Nagong Spirit of War and the Great Spirit himself
Tarum the Allmighty
The Worhty keeps dancing
The fire now dancing in them, spreading its arms, in the wind branching
dancing in their soul, their body, pain, sweat soaking their fur
the drums singing "Dum Dong Dum!"
Then the spiritman screams
"They have spoken, the choice has been made, their words like holy streams!"
All hold their breath, who will it be,?
Lono, Ramtro or Povau perhaps
Who will be the new Tauren Warrior?
"It is Bonlau! He is our new protector!"
Cheers from the tribe, Klarus rasing his scepter
"I name him Bonlau Fierce Eye!"
Cheers from the tribe
The other Worthy returns to rest
Proud, honoured by their defeat, they did their best
Left is Bonlau Fierce Eye, the Chosen
He enters the Tent of Nagong to recieve his weapon and tatooes
All is well
The Taurens return to their tents to dwell
Still the fire burns telling of the new Tauren Warrior
and still the drums sing
"Tarum Dong Tarum"
