Description / content note
There was once a man who went hunting and caught a buck. He gave the liver and innards to his mother-in-law to cook. She not only cooked them but ate them all herself and tried to hide the fact from her son-in-law who sang to his dog. "Galu wanga, galu wanga n'kamanga. Wanimana matumbo apatsa mkomweni wa lero kamangeni galu." "My dog, my dog, I am going to tie my dog to a tree so that he never goes again to hunt in the bush." "They have not given me the innards, they have given the meat to another. Son-in-law " Go and tie your dog to a tree." Story and song with clapping.
