story

lumwi iwimbo iwamba kuti siamubbula
oyu muntu wakajaya siejenga kuhwange
ino, siejenga akafwa
siankwede, mwimbi wakamvwa lubo
kutegwa siamubbula ngwakaja ya siejenga
kuzwa awa siankwede wimba iwimbo oyu
siankwede wimba iwimbo
oyu siankwede tayandi muntu ujaya bamwi
kutegwa bazibe zibi
ndolwimbo olu iwamana

another song talks of siamubbula / this man killed siejenga at hwange / now siejenga died / siankwede, the composer, heard again / that siamubbula was the very person who killed siejenga / after that, siankwede sang a song / this siankwede doesn`t want someone to kill other people / he composed a song to assure other people / that they are to know what happened / this is the end of the song.
