A Rendition of a Zulu Battle Song

 

 

The video above was taken in Danganya, Umkomaas. Sipho Ngwenya from the area, is seen leading the song that can be literally translated in English to, “What must we do, what must we do about those that hate us?”

The song dates back many years. It was sang by amaButho, the Zulu warrior men. Song and dance has always been a comforter for various tribes across the African continent. The rendition is beautifully sung by the school children of Dlambula Primary School in Danganya. They were recorded practising for a Heritage Day event.
