- Description
- A ceertain man invited his friends to a drinking party and during the proceedings he spoke inspiring words to his guests which delighted them very much. "We were pleased with your words" they reply in chorus. The answer to an invitation to a drinking party. This song bears a remarkable similarity to the songs of the Karanga of Southern Rhodesia. It is also interesting to note that two Chopi men of Southern Mozambique when hearing this song, separately and several years apart, both claimed that the song was an old song of their own people. One man Gilbert Mahlatini stated it was a curative and other, Calisto Zavala, an initiation song. Drinking song, with Ebinyege leg rattles and clapping.
