- Description: This is the song taken from the story about a father who went out hunting, could find no buck and killed his child instead in the forest. But a bird that had seen what he did, sang that it was going to tell the people. So he killed the bird too, but hardly had he gone a few steps when there it was again. Again he killed it and again there it was, and so in the end the bird told the people. It is the parable of a guilty conscience. The reason why he killed his child, they said, was because he had gone out hunting and was unsuccessful and was so ashamed that he killed his child in the place of a buck. A very gruesome story!

She said 'Mother while you were away a little animal came here, danced and sang and as it danced the mealies fell off their cob onto the ground and he ate them all up! The animal asked her where her father was. She said "My father is dead". "And where is your mother?" "She is out collecting green food." "What kind?" "Watercress and spinach". So the mother said "Tomorrow I will stay at home and see this little animal." The animal came again and did the very same thing and she was astonished at what she saw. Story song, with 2 rattles.
