SONG LYRICS: Tonight's tonight's the wedding feast The men arrive with the slaughtered beast A wail, a chant soon fills the air For miles around the people hear Mama Tembu's getting married here tonight All the spirits looking, shouting their delight Mama Tembu's getting married here tonight The bones are thrown and love is happy, shining bright Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja The neighbours kneel and kiss the bride The warrior waits, he's filled with pride The drummer starts to pound the drum For miles around they hear the sound Mama Tembu's getting married here tonight All the spirits looking, shouting their delight Mama Tembu's getting married here tonight The bones are thrown and love is happy, shining bright Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja And I sighed and I called in the deep of the night Because never before have I seen such a sight As the bride Mama Tembu walks out through the door And the valleys still echoes the sound of the roar Mama Tembu's getting married here tonight All the spirits looking, shouting their delight Mama Tembu's getting married here tonight The bones are thrown and love is happy, shining bright Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja Ela chle ghala chle thalakalela paja
