This is my attempt at taking words from Tocharian B and putting them together to form a primitive chant. I cannot say anything about whether the context or grammar is even remotely correct, but it was an attempt to take what little we have of Tocharian B (several hundred words, I believe) and fashion a chant (a song actually) out of it. The translation is included to the right of the chant.
