- Description: There was once a man and his son who went to the lake for fishing, they caught nothing and went home. The son bought an egg but dropped it on the path, but inside the egg were cows and goats in plenty. So he sang a song saying, "We went to the lake but got no fish, but when I bought this egg I had no idea what was in it." Now the father became jealous of his son. He took some glue and glued his son to a tree, but all the cattle and goats stayed with the son and the father still got none. So he left his son in the bush. When he was asked by is wife where his son was, he said, "Oh! he was ahead of me." The woman replied, "You walk too much with my son and now you have lost him." The listeners often call out the typical Yao response og 'Go'. Story song.

- Description: A stroy of a girl and the protective colouring of guinea fowl spots. One of the few stories, perhaps, which makes a reference to cannibalism. There was once a girl who went to the garden to fetch mealies. Now there came some guinea fowls and she was facinated by their spots. She said "oh! can't you make me some lovely spots like yours?" They said, "No! we cannot because we are afraid of your father and mother." But the girl said, "Don't you be afraid of my parents." So they made them for her. Then she went off to an old woman who was a cannibal and was delighted to see the girl but the girl put on her spots and escaped. Story song.

- Description: There were two men who were friends, one was a Yao and the other was a Chewa. The Chewa invited the Yao to his house and he found them at lunch where they had pork to eat. "We do not eat pork" the Yao said "so when you invite me you should not offer me pork". Now the Yao invited the Chewa, and to his surprise the Chewa found the Yao eating pork and dancing. The Yao told the Chewa to listen to the kind of music the Yao themselves sang in order to divert his friend's attention from the mean. But the Chewa said to the Yao, "You cannot deceive us any longer. We now know you do take this kind of meat, so do not refuse my pork in the future." The Yao came under the direct influence of the Arab traders and most of them are Mohammedans, hence the taboo on eating pork. Nthano story with clapping.
