Songs Edit

"A Foggy Water Tribe Tune" Edit

Performed by: Tho

Set my lines by the river bed

Caught ten fish and I killed 'em dead

Cut 'em and gut 'em and I tossed the heads

In the water to keep them cat-gators fed

Tho sang this song to pass the time and in celebration of his and his friends' freshly caught dinner that happened to be Appa.^[1]

"Badgermoles" Edit

Performed by: Sokka and Chong

Badgermoles coming toward me,

Come on guys help me out...

The big bad badgermoles, who earthbend the tunnels,

Hate the wolfbats, but love the sounds.

Sokka and Chong performed this tune to tame wild badgermoles and to stop the badgermoles from killing them.^[2]

"Don't Fall in Love with the Traveling Girl" Edit

Performed by: Chong

Don't fall in love with the traveling girl,

She'll leave you broke, and broken hearted.

(The rest is unknown.)

Chong performed this song before he met Team Avatar.^[2]

"Don't Let the Cave-in Get You Down, Sokka" Edit

Performed by: Chong

Oh, don't let the cave-in get you down.

Don't let the falling rocks turn your smile into a frown.

When the tunnels are darkest that's when you need a clown, hey!

Don't let the cave-in get you down, Sokka!

Chong performed this song to not let the cave-in discourage Sokka, but was unsuccessful.^[2]

"Fire Nation National Anthem" Edit

Performed by: Fire Nation Man

Fire Lord

My flame burns for thee.

(The rest is unknown.)

This song was sung by Fire Nation Man before a fight against The Boulder at Earth Rumble VI. Although this song is said to be the Fire Nation National Anthem, the singer is not actually from the Fire Nation, so it is unknown if this is the real national anthem or if the Fire Nation even has a national anthem.^[3]

"Four Seasons" Edit

Performed by: Iroh

Winter, spring,

Summer and fall.

Winter, spring,

Summer and fall

Four seasons,

Four loves.

Four seasons,

For love.

Iroh performed this song during one of his music nights to keep his nephew's crew happy.^[4] After the defeat of Phoenix King Ozai, the song was played once again by Iroh with his tsungi horn.^[5]

"Girls from Ba Sing Se" Edit

Performed by: Iroh

It's a long, long way to Ba Sing Se

But the girls in the city they look so pretty

And they kiss so sweet that you've really got to meet

The girls from Ba Sing Se!

Iroh sang this song to entertain a passersby to earn money.^[1]

"Leaves from the Vine" Edit

Performed by: Iroh

Episode: "Tales of Ba Sing Se"

Leaves from the vine

Falling so slow

Like fragile, tiny shells

Drifting in the foam

Little soldier boy

Come marching home

Brave soldier boy

Comes marching home

"Leaves from the Vine", a popular children's song, like a lullaby, in the Fire Nation's vernacular,^[6] is a song that Iroh sang in remembrance of his deceased son, Lu Ten, on the latter's birthday. He also sang it in the marketplace of Ba Sing Se to help calm down a crying boy.^[7]

"Love is in Your Heart" Edit

Performed by: Chong

Even if you're lost you can't,

Lose the love because it's in your heart.

La la la la la (In sync with melody)

Chong performed this tune while in the Cave of Two Lovers after he told Sokka of his idea. It was again played after they found their way out of the cave.

"Secret Tunnel" Edit

Performed by: Chong

Two lovers, forbidden from one another

A war divides their people, and a mountain divides them apart.

Built a path to be together.

... (yeah I forget the next couple of lines but, uh, then it goes.)

Chorus:

Secret tunnel!

Secret tunnel!

Through the mountain!

Secret, secret, secret, secret tunnel! Yeah!

Chong performed this tune to tell the tale of the secret tunnel. Chong later remembered the forgotten part as "and die!"^[2]

"The Chakras Song" Edit

Performed by: Six-armed Guru Pathik

Episode: "Nightmares and Daydreams"

Chakras, Chakras, Everybody loves chakras

Chakras, Chakras, Chakras sandwich tastes good

Yum!

Guru Pathik performed this song during one of Aang's hallucinations.^[8]
