- Description: This song was recorded by moonlight by a very gay and picturesquely dressed group of Xhosa people, young and old men and women. The garments were of pale ochre and yellow and many men and women were smoking pipes of great length, both bowl and stem. Clothes, tobacco pauches and necklaces all beautifully beaded. During the course of this song the owner of the nearest house shouted out: "Should not the owner of this place be paid?" When his voice came out loud and clear in the playback, all the people burst out laughing and he vanished amongst the crowd covered with embrrassment. Song for Mhlahlo dance, with clapping.
