Zals Turhaya was a Corellian anthem commonly sung at Corellian gatherings that directly translated to "All Bright Star" in Basic. The song was a gradual modification of the original iteration that went by as "Min Turhaya" in circa 10,000 BBY.
When Corellian colonists settled the New Plympto system, the space-faring King Kaahas e Solo commissioned an unidentified Gasan string drum musician to write the Plymptonian colony an anthem to celebrate and remember it's achievements for decades to come.
The song proved popular with Corellians at home— far more than King Kaahas e Solo anticipated. It'd be sung for millenniums to come.
Lyrics[]
The most commonly sung version of Zals Turhaya in 13 BBY went like this.
O' Turhaya! O' Turhaya! Min dul'skal, ahn gild' domina- gylif's fharth larel on valle asht Khasaan'l Corellisi
The lyrics directly translated to Basic.
Oh bright star! Oh bright star! Clear skies, and golden luck- life forces love upon you at the sight of a Corellian!
