Composed by Veljo Tormis. Octavo. Published by Fennica Gehrman (FG.55009-124-5).

ISBN 979-0-55009-124-5.

This is one of Tormis's most popular choral songs. Its pagan, shamanistic rhythm lies in the nonsense syllable "tabu-tabu" repeated over and over again. The words actually meant "taboo" depicting the inability of the Estonians (i.e. Aboriginals) to speak out during the Soviet occupation.
