Skekelele Canthemwa ; Zamuone magege
Description / content note
a. "We are glad to see our Chief, who has come to collect taxes." It is clear the song is sung by the children and not by the tax payers. b. "Come and see the stones." This song usually accompanies a singing game done with stones which are passed on from child to child in the circle. The leader started this song before the first had finished. The style of singing in both these songs originated from the school rather than the villages. Two Walking song
