You have left the son of God out on the veld. You will have to go back and fetch him. The island is burning!" The song refers to the wild storm which raged around the mountain Thaba Bosiu in 1957 which blew away the roof of a Church and did much damage to homes in the region. Although the song is an initiation song, it is couched in essentially Christian trems. Lengae men's initiation song.

- Description: The tune is based upon a song which says that Kalagala was a chief in Busoga who caught and killed the Kabaka's messengers. The Kabaka sent an army in return to destroy him and his people. Feeling has always run high between the Ganda and Soga peoples, the former living on the west and the latter on the east side of the river Nile where it emerges from Lake Victoria Nyanza. The approximate sizes of the drums were:- Ntamivu, big drum, 25 inches across, 37 inches tall. Naku, medium drum, c. 14 inch head, 19 inches tall. Njongo, small drum, c. 12 inch head, 17 inches tall. Tall laced drum. c. 10 inch head, 39 inches tall. The Naku (-14.22301-) was played with the hands, the others (-14.22303-) were played with beaters. The tall drum stood beside the very large Ntamivu and both were played by one man. The tuning of the xylophone was:- 776, 688, 608, 520, 456, 388, 344, 304, 260, 228, 194, 172 v.s.
