- Description: "Where does the chief want us to go today? To leave in the evening when it is cold. With a drizzle of rain like a mist. With all the lads afraid of mounting their horses. Our saddles will be wet, and our trousers creased. By Morake's child, I will curse somebody! We of the Tau family, are one-handed. We receive food with it and feel pleased. We kill our own monkey's at Matsau-Tsau. Where did they see him? They saw him at the sugarcane fields. Why does he say he wants Basotho? He says he wants a Basotho blanket. Jump on my back and away we go. Fathers, let us go." Riding song.
