- Description: "When Serenje's father died, he mourned for a long time. "Toranchi" has taught me how to shoot on the rifle range, so, now I have learnt to shoot, I may be going to the war, and do not know if I will ever come back." This is a piece of fantasy, for in fact, Mr. Torrence has not taught him to shoot, but it is an oblique form of flattery and praise. He is fond of Mr. Torrence who is assistant African personnel manager, and that is why he sings about him in this way. The fact that Mr. Torrence was an officer in the King's African Rifles during the war may have contributed to the singer's hero worship of him. Self-delectative song with Kankowele fan-shaped mbira with external resonator.
