Description
Inspired by a Zulu song of liberation
Based on a South African liberation song in Zulu
Aya ngena
They come In,
Aya phuma
They get out,
Aya didizela
They’re in a state
of confusion,
Aye sab’
amagwala
The cowards
are scared.
Peace we bring you
why must evr’ybody
keep on fighting
when hunger needs
to be fought
beat your
swords
into
ploughshares
leave your guns now
Each instrument has a turn at being the soloist with various variations and the other parts go round, until the end section gives each instrument the start of the solo passage in a close canon.
