Yango na mobangi (Field Card)
of International Library of African Music (ILAM), in Hugh Tracey Fieldwork Collection and the Sound of Africa Series, TR118 (1952) , 1 page(s)
Contemplation of death, its inevitability, and its constant appearance, is an important subject in many African folk songs. The apparent joie de vivre displayed at the feast and the dance after a funeral is strange to foreign ideas but typical of Africa.

Yelina, Yelina, Yelina-e! Yelina timphinjili tanji ta m'matako tosacoka, Mwadula mwana akwegwano mwahizaye. -- (as written) "Yelina, what are those charms around your waist? You have risked the life of your baby and may lose him." A young woman has been seen weaving a string of wooden beads as a charm around her waist. So the other women sing: "What has she been doing to need such a charm?" The local belief is that if either the husband or wife commits adultery while the child is being born or during the time the woman is pregnant -- there will be a risk of the child being stillborn. The charm worn in this case was taken as a sign that the mother-to-be had misbehaved herself and was trying to guard against the consequences by wearing a string of wooden beads around her waist.

Note how the song becomes faster and the pitch rises. It is an old traditional song of the Nyasa Ngoni and appears to stem from the Zulu side of their culture.

A typical song from the Lundazi District which makes use of the local variety of yodeling and chorus. The recording was made in a hall which gives a false acoustic to the song which as a folk song should be heard in the open air.
