- Description
- The singer praises the people of the Mamba clan, for surely this is the clan where he found his wife "I do not care for the Nkima (monkey) clan, nor for the Ngabi (antelope) clan but only for the Mamba (lung fish) clan from which she came." The sharp tone of these Endongo lyres is caused by the fact that they have no bridge and the vibrating strings buzz against the membrane of the body. Love song, with 2 Endongo 8 strings lyres.
