death karma - indonesia - tana toraja lyrics

Loading...

rambu soloq ceremonies
apotheosis of the dead
funeral rites of tana toraja
ancient tradition of the highlands

the great respect
the act of boundless love
serving the spirits
on the final pathless path

the deceased is not buried, but embalmed
the great ancestor shares the same roof, the same house
until the ceremonies reach thе end
the eldеr soul is still present

together with the family
the proof of selfless love
the person who is sick
the one who fell asleep

when the visitors enter the buffalo+slaughtering field
the ceremony shall begin
after tedong silaga, the show of strength and bravery
the family slaughters buffaloes and pigs
so the spirit of the elder is satiated
and can dwell forever in peace
the visitors are granted with the meat of the sacrifice
however, the largest piece belongs to the deceased

aluk todolo provides strength before the journey
slaughtered heads decorate the place of puya

and the house of the bereaved
decorated with h+rns

on the eleventh day of the ceremony, the body is buried
caved up on a cliff
on the eleventh day of the ceremony
the spirit of the dead leaves…
…on the path to the land of souls

to the land of souls
