Title
Ko gae, gae, ko gae (At home, home, at home)
Description / content note
On this occasion, the ululating of the women and the general festive air was enhanced because of the singers being freshly returned from their initiation school. "At home, home, at home. That which eats the men's cattle, the animal. That which eats the men's sheep. That which eats the men's horses. It has a portruding forehead, the animal. It has an odd furrowed brow, the animal, and it has claws." Male initiation song.
