AFAIK never used in a sentence.
The element {morgh} also shows up in {morgh} "protest" (v) and {rejmorgh} "worrywart" (n).
Related nouns:
may' battle
may' bom battle song
may' ghe'naQ battle opera
may' qoch battle partner
may' ta record of battle
may' taj battle knife
may'Duj battle cruiser
may'luch battle gear, panoply, complete set of armor & weapons
N.B. {may'ron} "accordion, concertina" is apparently unrelated to {may'} "battle", though curiously {ron} also shows up in {che'ron} "battlefield" and - less curiously - in {DIron} "bagpipes". (There's also a verb {ron} "roll, bank [e.g. aircraft].)
