Overall Meaning

The lyrics "An Karanir Thanagor Mor Ok Angalor Mor Ok Gorum Palahm Raval Ro-mun A'l Ga Ballog A'l Enthu Korok Na Boda Ha! Ma! Da! Ma Erigo Eo Draco Modo Mor Ok Gorum Pala'ahm Mor Ok Croval Angalor Thanagor Karanir Thanagor" are from the song Arthas, My Son, composed by Neal Acree. The song is a powerful and emotional piece that was featured in the hit game, World of Warcraft. The lyrics are spoken in a fictional language used in the game and is largely incomprehensible to those who are not familiar with the lore of the game. However, through the use of the powerful music and haunting vocals, the song conveys a sense of power and darkness that reflects the theme of the game.

The lyrics are believed to be a chant of some sort, possibly summoning an ancient and powerful force. The song is said to represent the inner turmoil and eventual descent of the game's main character, Arthas, into darkness and evil. The lyrics are meant to sound mysterious and otherworldly, echoing the sense of foreboding and tension that permeates the game's storyline. The use of repetition and vocalization in the lyrics adds to the haunting quality of the song, making it a memorable and powerful piece.
