These four short devotional songs are usually sung and drummed during the ecstatic dance known as damal but may also be sung in the shrines, for programs, or for recordings. The texts address many aspects of nature and spirituality and some build to a feverish pitch of devotional excitement. Damal can refer to fire walking as well as to wild and tumultuous merriment, both of which the Sidis practice during the annual urs to their black Sufi saint, Gori Pir. The Sidis also call it goma, a Bantu word for drum or dance widely used in Africa (Swahili ngoma), or zikr, "recollection," because such songs repeat the praises and remembrances of the Prophet and saints of Islam and Sufism, including the Sidi saints.
