- Description: The Pango (Bango or Bangwe) is the instrument most commonly found throughout Nyasaland. Here the local dialect changes the more usual Bangwe to Pango and sometimes Pangwe. I was strummed with a swaying of the fingers. The singer begs for a chicken. People have been dancing and then are asking the owner of the house to give them a chicken to eat before they go home. Kwiyo-kwiyo is the sound of the fowl. "Kwiyo-kwiyo, catch the chicken even though it is a small one. There is the chicken." The sound of a bugle intrudes just before the end of the song. Self delectative song with board zither (Pango).
