Performer / Recordist
Description / content note
"Let them gallop girls, let them gallop! I will not leave mu child behind. Donki is as close to me as my belt. Donki is the belt which I tie around my waist. The Semani people have released me, so I can go away. They have allowed me to take my children and go. I am not afraid of trying up my blankets and going. Girls, you are not backing me up (in singing). You sound half-hearted (addressed to the other singers with her). I am in the care of a christian woman. If I have had a meal at the Chief's place it is enough. I do not like food given me by common people. Mokibo women's kneeling dances, with clapping.
