- Description: The singers sang with a completely composed and sedate manner, and listened to the playback without a smile, but applauded themselves enthusiastically at the end as did the crowd who shouted "Very good." "You people of the watch tower, when you go across the river (Zambesi) go and ask them where my brother sleeps. The people of Satani have lied that people who died go to heaven (and do not stay here in the country of Petauke)." The idea that the souls of the dead leave the familiar earth and go to a far place 'heaven' is repugnant to some African people even though they may be Christian in name. They prefer the more homely resting place of the home country and its well known features. Lament
