It appears in the paq'batlh on page 139:
nIteb chegh molor ngIq ghoqwI'
joqwI''e' cha'bogh qeylIS
luDel 'e' ra' molor
lujang meQboghnom 'oH
yeqchuqchu'taHghach
Daw' je joqwI'
One by one Molor's scouts return,
He asks them which banner
Kahless marches under
They reply it is the meQboghnom*
The banner of unity
and revolution
* Kahless's meQboghnom, a name comprised from the roots "burn" (meQ), "to
be born" (bogh) and "fast" (nom) expresses his revolutionary intentions.
