(ghunchu'wI', 8/22/2011): As the duel between Kahless and Molor continues, the opera repeats a phrase several times: {pan qeylIS betleH 'ej jach molor 'etlh} "Kahless's batlh'etlh sparks and Molor's sword roars." I might not be remembering the lyrics exactly, so please don't take them as perfect canon.
ghunchu'wI' may have missed a word. This line shows up in paq'batlh as:
qaStaHvIS wej rep
pan qeylIS betleH
'ej jach molor 'etlh HoS
[translation unavailable]
{molor 'etlh HoS} "Molor's mighty/powerful sword"
PUN: flash in a pan?
