Description: "You who reject men's advances, Tshabalala. What will your mother eat, Tshabalala? In point of fact, food is provided by son-in-law, Tshabalala." The 'son-in-lwa' reference implies not only the bride-price 'Bogadi' paid for a girl, but the son-in-law also ploughs for his mother-in-law. A wedding song for the bride, with clapping.
