- Description: The story of an elephant who was given a child to liik after. "I have brought up so many children, that is easy, leave it to me" said the elephant. So he took the child away into the thick bush. When evening came she called the elephant to bring the child back. But there was no reply. So she went home to tell her husband and to collect the men to come and help her find the elephant. They came straight away, found the footprints of the elephant and followed them into the bush singing to the elephant as they went. At this point the recording ends without the denouement, so we shall never know if she got her child back or not. Whenever the word or refrain 'Samanyemba' is used in a Karanga song it is usually associated with decit. It appears that Samanyemba was the father of all liars - men were deceivers ever. Story song.

"The sun is setting, wake up, wake up! Ha-hey-ha, old woman! She makes me laugh. I have discovered this hill here. Which is full of fruit, so I go here and there, eating my fill and laughing." Now when he had finished singing, he woke up, got up and followed the old woman all the way to her home. Son story.
