- Description
- "This language I speak, you speak without knowing it. In the battle of tongues, I should have been a lawyer. The language which is widely understood. You should have made holes in the mountains, so that I could go in and see the country between Natal and Aooeng. And the land between Winburg and Bloemfontein." "Aooeng" means 'the place where people say Aooeng'. i.e. the Eastern Free State, a reference to their mode of speech or dialect. Walking song.
