    Lyrics from "Good King Moogle Mog" I cannot translate

    In the lyrics to "Good King Moogle Mog" there are two lines I cannot find a plausible translation for:
    Pukla Puki plays with fire
    Poms a-burning on her pyre
    "Poms" might be British Slang for "foreigner" or "immigrant" - is that the intended meaning?
    Nod your noggle nog
    And mind your gob
    Or he'll put you to the sword!
    I could not find anything useful for "noggle" or "nog" - is it a misspelling?

    A Moogle pom is the little red ball sticking out of their head, and probably what the song is referring to.

    I think the "poms a-burning on her pyre" is a reference to moogle poms which is the fluffy bit on top of their head ...

    It's definitely not slang for immigrants or anything like that

    Noggle nog is just a cutesy way to fit the lyrics, referring to the slang "noggin" for head. And, like everyone else has said, pom refers to the pom-pom or fuzzy ball sticking out from the top of the moogle's head!

    Poms are the red orbs that moogles have attached to their heads.

    Nog is a shortening of Noggin, which is a slang term for head

    "Poms" is actually slang -for- British people, too!

    ^_^ love this song.

    Annoy my FC in teamspeak by singing along to it whenever we're fighting mog
    The alternative meaning for 'pom' never crossed my mind till I read this thread though o.o
