- Description
- Sung in the old Ngoni style. The Chief calls one out towards the end of the song that his people are the ones who came from the Swati, down South (with the Gomani section of the Ngoni). This section migrated from Natal either just before or during the Shaka wars. "Some had brought fighting men to terrify me, but could do nothing. But here we still live and you could do nothing to us." Two fighting songs.
