Description / content note
-
A child hunting mice dug a hole and found an eagle inside. The bird told him not to tell his mother that he had found him. As the boy was on his way home the bird sang his song. When he met his mother she asked him why the bird was singing. The boy answered "Because I dug it out". The singing chased the bird until it was tired, so she caught it and killed it. S. "Cinang'omba cinang'omba coyaya ine, CH. Siico cinang'omba. S. Mwanawe, usakanene kwa amako kuti yaye Cimbalame ca banga pa msana ye. CH. Siico cinang'omba." "There is the eagle, there is the eagle. You, child, do not tell your mother that you have seen the eagle with spots on his back." Story and song (Nthanu)
