Hear! Sons of Kahless

English Translation:
====================
Hear! Sons of Kahless.
Hear! Daughters too.
The blood of battle washes clean
the warrior brave and true.
We fight, we love, and then we kill.
Our lives burn short and bright.
Then we die with honor and join our fathers in the Black Fleet where
we battle forever, battling on through the Eternal Fight.

FUN FACTS:
The old guy sound familliar? That's John Garman Hertzler who played Martok, the one-eyed Klingon on DS9.

The 2nd in command is (I think) played by Catherine MacNeal who's been in CSI, something called "100 Deeds for Eddie McDowd" and the Voyager episode Learning Curve (S1E16, the one where Tuvok put the maquis noobs thru bootcamp). I don't think her character has a name in this, which is sad since she's one of my favorite characters in the film/game/thing. (the credits don't say which actor is which so forgive me if I'm matching the name and actor up incorrectly).

Hey, in the black annotation at 1:11 says film/gane, when it should be film/game.

Although, I don't know. I don't speak Klingon. :D

[UnanimousDelivers]

@electrojacks YOU GANE NOTHING! YOU LOOSE! GOOD DAY SIR!!

..

... :P j/k

yes, i screwed up. fixing.

[SulliMike241]

JG Hertzler!?! Sheesh, he must love playing a Klingon.

[UnanimousDelivers]

@SulliMike241 Yes, in fact he's stated that fact in interviews.

[Myuutsuu85]

0:55. i can't help but love this song

[chrismc410]

@johnkerry7 Or a Dahar Master in the cases of Kor, Koloth and Kang. They died old, in battle.

[chrismc410]

@girlgarde I guess you kind of have to be masochistic to be a Klingon. After all, what is a warrior without pain?

[girlgarde]

@SulliMike241 He must also enjoy getting his butt kicked and being abused since the guy he plays here AND the lawyer he played on Star Trek: Enterprise get brutally abused in some shape or form. Even General Martok gets abused by the Jem'hadar and later by Gowron!

[iknowmy3table]

I remember this song I once tried to memorize it despite not being a trekkie

[johnkerry7]

@UnanimousDelivers eeeeeeeasy budddy. Usually this " :P " means someone is being sarcastic. 

[UnanimousDelivers]

@johnkerry7 Right, because every single surviving Klingon in the universe is a council member, right?

[johnkerry7]

@kadindarklord Klingon warriors are supposed to die young in battle, unless they become council members :p
