The Böhmsong (Song)

Part of Folk Songs of Juhnvechteya
This song is associated (for obvious reasons) with the Böhmists faction of revolutionaries in Toradzland. Written following the Siege of Elderbaurg, it became popular with the soldiers of the movement, and was often sung by them and their branch-factions such as the Wêborite movement as they marched. Legend has it that the song was written by a young boy who was the banner-holder of Böhm during the Siege of Elderbaurg, though this is unlikely. Due to it’s catchy tune, it became a popular folk song following the wars. 
The following version is recorded by Hërlec Vasser, a Brankon-Toradzisch folklorist.
Deluded scoundrels curse the land 
Kadi-bim kadi-bam kadi-buma 
The air, it reeks, of sulfur and burns 
And Böhm goes wandering on 
It sounds so pleasant 
His wishes for the land 
Without lords, or kings, 
In Gorsarkhas Greflikita 
With Werry’s High Blessing
The corrupt Kovacs must be killed 
It is our god-given-goal 
It shall be done with sword and stone 
And their allies will also be razed 
Every mouse and house 
Every wife and man 
Every village, town, every farm and hill 
And Böhm goes wandering on
Father Böhm marks a small figure 
Though his sword is miles long 
And when it swings, 
it strikes with strength 
And his foes go tumbling down 
The lying pests must be brought down
Everything done unto the corrupt 
Shall be thanked by Werry’s Host
This song is coming to an end 
And it’s singer has 
Reaped many spoils of the corrupted 
And of egatl drank his share 
His name is Mikel Millömen 
And he set fifteen towns ablaze 
He never tired of it.
