“I am she who lifts the mountains When she goes to hunt, Who wears mamba for a headband And a lion for a belt. Beware!

I am she who tosses trees Instead of spears. The ostrich is my pillow And the elephant is my footstool! I am Nhamo Who makes the river my highway And sends crocodiles scurrying into the reeds!”
