“Shadilay!”
For those who praise Kek, the word sort of works the same way “Alluh Ackbar” functions in Islamic cultures. It’s a token of approval, a declaration of gratitude, an expression of exuberance, and even an ominous war cry—all in one.
It’s almost like one of those viral communication constructs that encapsulate the full essence of an idea in one quick, easily-digested soundbite or visual. What do we call those things again?
I forget. Anyway, it’s Thanksgiving in Trump Country, so on this holy day of praise, let us dive down the Shadilay rabbit hole and have our minds blown anew.
WARNING: Surreal synchronicities ahead.
From The Lips Of Kek Emerged A Word, And It Was SHADILAY
Bringing you up to speed:
On the eve of September 11th 2016, 4chan’s /pol/ board (the unofficial Cyber-Temple of Kek) was posting at peak frenzy.
The issue of Hillary’s health had been simmering in the news cycle for weeks—despite the biased media’s best attempts to suppress it. At this point the only thing /pol/ hated more than Hillary Clinton was the mainstream media’s blatant refusal to talk about her negatively.
/Pol/ wanted Hillary’s frail condition exposed for all to see. And (perhaps) more importantly, they wanted the mainstream media’s insistence on Hillary’s perfect health to blow up in their faces.
They wanted what 4chan calls “a happening.” So in great numbers, with burning passionate desire, they turned to their Frog God to provide.
Provide he did.
September 11th, 2016. On that day, faith in Pepe the Frog’s paternal deity reached an all time high.
And on this day when Kek worship crossed over the threshold of irony, Kek’s holy anthem also rose to the surface of /pol/. Almost as if the god Kek himself—empowered by the surge of genuine belief—was finally able to reach out to the material plane and speak to /pol/ directly.
You know how Moses went to the mountain and received the Ten Commandments? To Kek-worshipers, Shadilay’s a lot like that.
Let Me Spell This Out For You
Why is Shadilay so important to Kekism? Let me tell you why in black-and-white. Let me explain this ridiculous synchronicity symphony.
- It “emerged” into /pol/’s collective consciousnesses directly on the heels of a great “happening,” though the record was first released in 1986.
- The record is stamped with the image of a smug green frog. Pepe the Frog–often depicted with a smug expression–has been /pol/’s meme of choice for years.
- The record likewise displays the word “P.E.P.E” outright.
- The original run-time shown on the record (5:55) consists of repeating integers—something that’s been sacred to imageboard culture since the dawn of 4chan.
- The acronym “Point Emerging Probably Entering” directly aligns with the random nature of GETS (a post number that ends in repeating integers) on 4chan.
- The frog is brandishing a magic wand and the label is called “Magic Sound.” 4chan proclaims (sometimes ironically, sometimes not) that their memes have magic reality-altering powers.
- “JUBAL” sounds like “jubilant”, and indeed the common /pol/ expressions “Kek” and “Praise Kek” are jubilant in nature.
- It’s produced by “Ass. Art.” /Pol/ has pioneered a form of low-effort or detached Internet discussion widely known as “shitposting.” Ass.Art -> Shitposting.
- The actual lyrics themselves (explained in a moment).
In other words, every external facet of this track is a /pol/, Kek, and meme magick synchronicity. And we haven’t even touched on the lyrics yet.
Cosmic Absolute, Regular Reality
When you translate the song’s native Italian into English, we end up with this:
VERSE I:
Cosmic absolute, regular reality
Breath of a image/concept, syntony[sic] of civilizations
Confused descendants of rebel cells
I fly towards the universe, I’ll pass through it
If you are a star, show yourself, I will stop
oooh ooohCHORUS (repeated twice):
Shadilay shadilay my freedom
Shadilay shadilay oh no
Shadilay shadilay oh dream or reality
Shadilay shadilay oh no
(You) fly into my life, no it’s not finished
I will stop
Set my sails, in the sky or at the bottom of the sea
I WILL BELIEVE IN YOUVERSE II:
Metallic harmony, CONCRETE/REAL REALITY
Electronic videoclip, praise of civilizations
Confused descendants of rebel cells
I fly towards the universe, I’ll pass through it
If you are a star, show yourself, I will stop
oooh ooohCHORUS (repeated twice):
Shadilay shadilay my freedom
Shadilay shadilay oh no
Shadilay shadilay oh dream or reality
Shadilay shadilay oh no
(You) fly into my life, no it’s not finished
I will stop
Set my sails, in the sky or at the bottom of the seaI WILL BELIEVE IN YOU
Yes, it’s a chaotic word salad. But it’s also bizarrely coherent.
The lyrics directly speak of a less-than-real reality (like the one where a reality star is President?)
Of “passing through” the universe (switching timelines?)
Of “Confused descendants of rebel cells” (you mean like the so called “alt-right” movement, which struggles—or maybe just refuses—to adopt a uniform set of principles?)
Note that one word remains without translation. Shadilay. It has a nice ring to it, but what does it mean? Well, nobody really knows. And that makes perfect sense. It represents how some portion of Kek—ancient Egyptian god of primordial chaos that he is—will always evade rational explanation.
Finally, the lyrics also talk of an “image/concept” being the “syntony” (weird archaic word for natural harmony) “of civilizations.” My friends, that is almost literally the modern definition of a meme.
Spine-tingling stuff.
And we’re not even done here yet…
Kek Is a Tapestry: His Memes Are Threads Woven Throughout The Fabric Of Time
You must realize the above in order to grasp the true significance of Kek, and Pepe the Frog, and all the crazy “coincidences” that /pol/tards obsess over.
The following is but one example of this principle. Put your seat-belt on because we’re about to go from crazy to turbo-sperg in under 2 seconds.
First: There are adults who love Pokemon so much that they develop their own Pokemon fan games.
Were you aware of this? Now you are. How could this possibly relate to what we’re talking about?
Second: One fan game was called Pokemon Chaos. It featured a fan-designed Pokemon named Shadilay. He was a glum-faced amphibian, water/ghost-type Pokemon. All of this was done in 2015—a full year before Kek, Pepe the Frog, and the song Shadilay emerged in connection with one another on /pol/.
Top mememologist Göbekli Pepe on Twitter deserves all the credit for compiling this baffling new synchronicity. He lays it out for us below:
So the picture you see isn’t the Pokemon called “Shadilay”, it’s pre-evolved form called “Shaytol.” The artwork for “Shadilay” was never finished, but I wonder what it might have looked like…
Looks pretty natural to me.

You live in a world where a group of internet misfits meme-magicked a celebrity madman into the White House with the help of an ancient Egyptian deity.
Needless to say, reality is a lot stranger than you realized. Find out why that is—and how you can use it for your own selfish interests—in this book from the author of this website.
