In the original version of Star Wars Episode VI: The Return of the Jedi, the Ewoks play a song to celebrate their victory over the Empire. You will also be able to sing and understand it.
The Geek culture as much culture is made up of a lot of song that everyone knows or should know about. As Britney Spears in 5 billion years, one must know her songs which, for lack of listening and sharing, will end in oblivion.
And that's what George Lucas was trying to do with Yub Nub, Ewoks celebration song that appears in the original version of the movie released in 1983 but unfortunately removed during the Special Edition. But thanks to the magic of the internet, it remains accessible to anyone who wants to look for it. That is why we share it with you today, because it must be centralized so that it can continue.
The lyrics of this song were written by the sound designer of ILM Ben Burtt while the English translation was made by the son of John Williams, Joseph.
