Description: Legends in this part of Africa, around the great lakes are often told to a rippling instrumental accompaniment especially to the trough zither. This song refers to the death of a certain Saza chief called Daudi. Rumour has it that after he was buried certain men (said to be socerers) went to the grave to dig him up. But just at the moment it began to rain and they diagreed so violently that they failed in their purpose and went away. The cries in the background from one of the spectators, they said, had nothing to do with the legend. The narrator unfortunately had a very husky voice. Legend in song, with 6 Budongo Likembe and 1 flat Nsaasi tin rattle.
