Hi Luis, thanks for your explanation - a bit late, yes, but now I am wiser than I was before :-)

Hello there, I assume it is pretty late but maybe it is still buzzing you. It is indeed a direct reference to the song, the thing is that the song is a word play of the singer with the numbers in Basque and creating meaningless words with the first syllable of the number. 1 Bat (baga), 2 Bi (biga), 3 Hiru (higa), 4 Lau (laga), 5 Bost (boga)...

In this text the author is just matching-translating each word with its equivalent in Spanish.

Hi Yasutomo
In the end I settled for "baga, biga, higa" (a traditional Basque song by Mikel Laboa). Thanks for your help all the same!

Yes, now, you've convinced me. It's definitely not Spanish.

Hi Yatsutomo - Yeah, I think it's Basque, see this link with the lyrics:

Is the language pair really Basque to English? I found all the defintions in Spanish-English/Japanese dictionaries...
