- Description
- Nthandazi is the name of a local labour recruting agency which has recruited her husband for work in Southern Rhodesia. So she was left alone at home until he returned. So she sings. "Nthandazi has no pity. It has taken away my man. At night I cry. All night I mourn." A baby's voice can be heard during the song, slung on its mother's back. Dance song for Chintala women dance.
