Description: The gist of the song is about a man who was drowning in the river, and he called on all his friends to come and save him. His canoe was drifiting away and he could not swim. This song, they said, was used when going to raid the Lozi tribe manay years ago, before Europeans came to the country in the nineteenth century. Fighting song.
