Description: The singer calls the fighting men Zebras in this old heroic song of the violent past. He says "Zebras, you must run fast, the leopard is after you." Songs of the sort were sung at parties to encourage men to deeds of bravery. The sharp rhythmic beatings were made by the player striking the gourd resonator with the back of a finger. Heroic song with Ligombo 6 string trough zither.
