My names are Britta Natasha Kawinga.

I'm a native from eastern part of Zambia.

My father is Ngoni and my mother 
is Nsenga.

Dzina langa ndine Britta Kawinga, 
ndichokera kum'mawa.

Ndidzakuimbirakoni kanyimbo ka m'Chichewa

Aka kanyimbo koyamba ni kanyimbo 
kotonthoza mwana ngati alira

Ndiponso kanyimbo ndiyankha

Uwuuwuwe, uwuwuwe

mwana alira, afuna mkaka

muperekeni kwa amake akamphikire

nkhoto nyemba bwerera iye
aa aa eya eya

Mwana kalirani njala
Mwana kalirani tulo

aa eya eya
Mwana alira, afuna mkaka

muperekeni kwa amake akamphikire
nkhoto nyemba bwerera iye

aa eya eya

mwana kalirani njala
mwana kalirani tulo

aa eya eya

So basically in the Chewa culture when
a child is crying, when a child wants

to sleep, this is a lullaby that the
mother will sing to the child

The other one is usually sung when
women are pounding. And it goes like this:

Titwe, titwe, iyayi titwe, zangalewa
Titwe, titwe, iyayi titwe, zangalewa

Amayi amfumu, alowa m'sitolo
Na muchira wa ng'ombe na

mu ndodo kum'manja
iii! iii!

Titwe, titwe, iyayi, titwe zangalewa
Titwe, titwe, iyayi titwe zangalewa

Amayi amfumu alowa m'sitolo
Na mu mchira wa ng'ombe

Na mu ndodo ku m'manja
aii! aii!

Thank you
