Story behind the song
From the story: http://www1.asstr.org/~Davo/kalakhoam.htm Gur had not wanted to risk attacking the village, and he didn't understand why Kahela thought they could win. But he had obeyed her. His warriors - so many of them were just boys. They could shoot well enough, but they were hopeless at obeying orders. They will be slaughtered in this battle, he thought. The boys and young women had been playing, when Kahela had come running in. Holding their own Gathering of Cattle, they said. They played their pipes and drums in the mountain style, and held races and wrestling matches. The weaver boys solemnly pretended to give the sheep to the farm girls, who promised grain in return.
