Abasungu balisa-we tata
Description / content note
"The White people have come, father, they are flying in the sky. They have made the smelter. They have made the shaft. They brought money. They have come here for good, they will never turn back from our country. They have settled in our (Lamba) country, these settlers of the Copper Belt." This refers to great industrial intrusion into this part of Africa where large deposits of copper are now being mined in what used to be a remote and densely wooded part of the country. Topical song
