You're probably thinking of the song from Birthright, Part II.
It's actually more than just non-standard; it's gibberish. Some have attemp=
ted to match it to Klingon words, but I think it's better to interpret it =
as a song in some other Klingon language.
from the episode script on st-minutiae.com:
Bagh Da tuHmoh.
ChojaH Duh rHo.
ylja'Qo'! ylja'Qo'! ylja'Qo'!
van'aj javDIch Qong DIr Sa'VIch
ghIH yot quelI'Pa
qevas HoH Qa
teblaw'nghu
mughato'Du
ylja'Qo'!
ylja'Qo'!
ylja'Qo'!
The first two lines are presumably translated as "Fire streaks the heavens!=
Battle has begun."
The line *ylja'Qo'* is presumably a misspelling of =AByIja'Qo'=BB ("don't s=
peak!").
This is the interpretation taken by author Keith R.A. DeCandido, who uses a=
version of this song in his books.

Subject: [Tlhingan-hol] victory song?
There was an episode of TNG that featured the Victory Song, and I cant seem=
to find a proper transcription of the lyrics so that I can try to translat=
e/understand them. (I know there are often discrepancies between on-screen =
pronunciation and what is considered "standard".)
Can anyone help me out, or point me in the right direction to find this inf=
o?
Thanks!
