- Description: A lovely melody taken from a Rungano story. The present musician himself had added his own instrumental accompaniment to an old song. After the last song, it is surprising to find that this is played on the same instrument, the key or mode seems to be quite different. "He-he-he laughing! He-he-he on the path! Do not be surprise if you see the Buzi river brown, It was because Manyati washed his gums. It is really me they are talking about. The little girl has disappointed me, She told me to wash myself so that we could be lovers; So I waited to be the first to wash in the pool." Spoken: "This is why the girls all laugh at us!" Song from a story with Mbira dze chiNdau.

Out of the many children in my family, there are only one or two who are of any value. My father's heart has wings, because he only cares for his own favourite among the children." Gwerure appears to be the title of a traditional tune which is well-known in the district and cannot be translated. There are many such names for old tunes, most of which have new recitative words set to their accompaniment with each generation of performers on the mbira. Topical song with mbira dza waNdau with bell, external resonator and 2 manuals.
