- Description
- A most interesting song which may well reflect something of the perplexity of the Tswana who have failed as yet to adjust themselves to the 20th century. "Chief Kegakilwe, the chieftainship is leaving us. Oh, we are afraid of the Europeans. We are afraid of their language. The young men all, all are afraid of the Europeans. Oh! where shall we escape to?" Male initiation song.
