Description: One of the best known tunes in all the Shona area of Southern Rhodesia. It has been associated with the older generation of forefathers and consquently played at all tribal or royal functions. The cock is above the Chief, because he wakes up still earler. Girls, let me make a magic. Grandmothers food! there is something suspicious under the plate. Which makes my heart turn over, (makes me want to be sick). My relative, my girl, dance well to delight my heart. Leave your husband and let us dance. Whatever happens we will pay for it, mu mother. What I have said is very little, and not enough to stop you cooking food. Girls just let me walk all over it. You girls, you refuse anyone until you feel you are about to die. I am also a man like other men. I am a cock, I am a ... (word not clear) and my spurs are worn out with strutting, (the ruffling of the wing feathers against the leg). The fowls have no holes in the village. Outside the village thay are afraid of cutting the trees. The older men with beards interfere. It is only their beards which make them sorry people. The Ndebele want administration all the time, and to pick and chose what they like from the cattle kraal. I am ugly but I am not a cannibal! I may be ugly but I am not a killer! I am ugly but still I do my ploughing! Song for the entertainment of chiefs, with Njari.
