Domba Song No. 8

 1  Ahee, Nyavhulondo!
   Ha, Nyavhulondo!
 2  Bvumelani, Nyavhulondo!
   Sing up, Nyavhulondo!
 3   ni vhona!
   Come on and you will see!
 4  Yowe, ri ya hayani.
   Alas! We are going home.
 5  A ri yeni, ri yo tambula.
   Let us go, we are going to suffer.
 Chorus:  i a gwa (bwa) madzete.
   It digs out madzete.

  Many different phrases are improvised by the soloist, but they have no particular relevance to the song or the show; they are rather standard expressions that are used in beer-songs and other music in which improvisation is required.
