- Description: The tune orginated from the Southern side of the Zambezi valley from the Sena/Tonga people, so the singer said. If so it is likely that the original tune was played upon some instrument other than the Bangwe board zither which normally does not penetrate across the Zambezi. Self delectative song with board zither (Bangwe).
