WoodenHeart✭✭✭✭Foolish mortal, on the wall
you see a puzzle, easy!
Yet I know you'll weep and fall
and fail to complety.

✭✭✭To my knowledge, none of the Elder Scrolls languages are actual languages with proper translations (like Klingon or Elvish
) so I'm not sure the song has any meaningful lyrics other than some Khajiit-sounding gibberish the loremaster (or whoever was in charge of writing the song) made up.
That said, you can hear the names of the Khajiit kingdoms if you listen closely, so I imagine the song's lyrics pay respects to the diversity of each Kingdom and then celebrate their unification.4 -

Some of the languages have actual English translations. Dragonish, or Dovahzul is one. Ta'agra the Khajiiti language is another with a whole fan made translation website dedicated to it.Edited by ArchMikem on June 16, 2019 12:37AMCP2,000 Master Explorer - AvA One Star General - Console Peasant - Khajiiti Aficionado - The Clan

✭✭✭Unconfirmed, but it's possibly the original and very early version of this song.
Fan of playing magblade since 2015. (PC NA)
Might be joking in comments.

Huh, that's cool, never heard about it! Now I wonder whether there is an actual translation... Sounds like a question for a Loremaster! (Tuttle, pls enlighten us!) Maybe we could have an Elsweyr-themed Lore Q&A post on the website as we had an Argonian one with Jee-Lar after Murkmire???

You're in luck! This one actually is translatable.

Swift paws of Ne-Quin-Al
Rimmen gold rains down
Green Riverhold has farms
Blessed-moons of Dune
Clever-Smile Orcrest in Dessert
Verkarth Strong-Warrior stand
Must-smile drinks for Meirvale
Helkarn has wary eyes
Wise words Alabaster praise
River people of Bruk’ra
Pray Pa’alatiin of reverence
Corinthe carving wood
Green forests of Tenmar
Torval renowns the Mane
Sweet Khenarthia has fish
Senchal ocean traders

“Clever-smile Orcrest in Dessert”
Really? In Dessert? I know Khajiit like moon sugar but that’s a bit much 😝😂2 -

You're not wrong. Death was my secret weapon in "sneaking" in the final part of the quest
