- Description
- The song is about a man who went home to his villag and fell ill. He wanted to go to hospital but his people tried to dissuade him. He replied, "I want to go to hospital and lie on a proper hospital bed" (mbeda). In the villages they lie on the ground. This song recounts the actual experience of the composer who was a boy working on the Northern Rhodesia Railways. Before these people were conquered by the Kololo they are said to have spoken the Siluyiana language. Topical song
