The results of the research, the song Ille Le or the sleep songs for boys 'umbu', has unique characteristics in terms of musical form, poetry, and cultural meaning. Musically, this song consists of four notes, namely B, D#, E, and F. The intervals used are dominated by P1, M2, M3, P4, m2, M7, P5. An interval scheme like this will result in static movement and stepping with occasional interval jumps. The meter used is 68. When combined with the existing intervals, it will form a story song.

Ille le's ethnomusicological studies link the analysis of musical forms and poetry.
