Context

The first song:
Mi muhe ye
Mi biat ye
Biat ye dada
Muhe dada

Quite possibly a battle song sung by the hilichurls before combat. I have observed that when two or more hilichurls are present, they engage in frenzied brawling after singing this vulgar song.

(Additional note: The original Chinese text specifies that when two or more hilichurls are present, after one of them sings this song, all hilichurls present will quickly descend into a frenzied brawl. Jacob Musk then adds that the spectacle is incomparably intense.)
