Description: A song for entertaining the chief. The title of this song has persisted for generations, each no doubt setting its own topical words to the traditional air. This in turn has no doubt suffered many a change in the course of time but is still Nheura for all that. The yodelling by Shona musicians in Southern Rhodesia is a distictive characteristic of their music and is similar to the yodelling of the Mambuti pygmies of North East Congo and the Turi forest. Chabarwa is a Njanja from the Charter district where about 1750 A.D. a certain Portuguese mulatto trader married the chief's daughter and took the Mitupo or clan name of Sinyoro (Senhor) which has been handed down to his male descendants since that date. Leave your husband and let us dance. What I have said is very little. But not enough to leave your husband behind in the house. The dream of Hobe's wife is true, she dreamed about a wagon. It has come, you men. Tall men are lucky, even when they kneel down they are still big. You can do it too. You women, I will start. The children of today are wocked. They only learn to be 'wasters'. We will marry the children of the Zinjanja. There are women who wear skin aprons. But the cost of dresses spoil the country. Who have you come with? Four will come in and the fifth I will go with. Topical song sung for the entertainment of Chiefs, with Njari dza Manjanja (Mbira).
