During this movement, pairs of dancers come out in turn from either end of the line and dance pas de deux front of the Timbila players until all have finished. Then the song is sung to finish the movement. "Good day Siliva, chief of Misawa! You, Siliva, you will never get a flgpole. You will be very poor. We are tired of cutting down mitowi trees." Siliva is the name of the present Chief Mavila. Orchestral dance with 6 Timbila xylophones, 4 Sanzhe (Alto), 1 Debiinda (Bass), 1 Gulu (Double Bass).
