Baga Biga Higa

This is the song that the witches sing when they meet together:

Baga, biga, higa,
laga, boga, sega,
Zai, zoi, bele,
harma, tiro, pun!
Xirristi-mirristi
gerrena plat,
Olio zopa
Kikili salda,
Urrup edan edo klik ...
ikimilikiliklik ...

Here is a famous Basque musician singing it:



Translation:
1 Baga (bat) 2 biga (bi) 3 higa (hiru) 
4 laga (lau) 5 boga (bost) 6 sega (sei)
7 zai (zazpi) 8 zoi (zortzi) 9 bele (bederatzi)
10 harma (hamar) tiro pun! - (bang!)

Xirristi-mirristi (onomatopoeia for slipping down the throat, or the sound of a crackling fire)
gerrena (BBQ/spitting) plat (dish), 
Olio Zopa (oil soup) Kikili salda (chicken broth)
Urrup edan (drinking at once) edo (or) klik (swallowing) 
ikimilikiliklik (glug glug glug) - a bit like 'abracadabra!'



and here is a video of the 3 forces dancing to this song!
