"The affairs, affairs of the chief. The partfidge will call, or another bird will sing. Ya, ya, la, la. Why is Ronwani so happy? because of the inheritance, because he will be chief. Masane weeps tears, Ya, ya, la, la. Abinele and Silive, headman of Mavila, are both well. Come all of you, you people, come and hear the orders, the instructions how to plough, to get corn in your lands. Ya, la, la, la. We men are being turned into women. Look at father Silive, he was called but refused to come! His mother, Zavale, did not allow him! Ya, la, la, la, la. All you people of Gaza, listen to this wonderful Mzeno of Timbilas." Orchestral dance with 6 Timbila xylophones, 4 Sanzhe (Alto), 1 Debiinda (Bass), 1 Gulu (Double Bass) and 1 Njele rattle.
