Description: "The singer dreamt one day of his own death and tells his mother, sister and the rest of his family about his dream." In fact, the singer Simon Sitole is repeating the words of a song heard from another man and does not refer to himself. Only the opening line was picked up. He made up the rest for himself. Wistful song with Mbira dza WaNdau
