- Description: "This year we expect to have a lot of sisal and therefore a lot of money. But some of our friends will lose because the grasshoppers have eaten their grain crops." The high price of sisal this year (1950) has created a demand and the local Sukuma have been cutting their sisal hedges and getting the fibre for sale to Indian buyers. A few days after this song was sung an order had to be issued by the authorities forbidding, temporarily, the buying of sisal as the Sukuma were neglecting to harvest both their grain and cotton crops which were being left to spoil in the fields. There is a sound fo drums in the distance at the beginning of the song. Busatsi dance song form men and women.

- Description: A song congratulating the Chief Fundikira on his method of stopping thieving in the country. He made wide areas collectively responsible for finding the thief. Thieving had become so bad, both from houses and from standing crops, that it called for drastic treatment. It appears that in the end all persons who had in the past been convicted of theiving were collected together and warned by the chief that every time there was a burglary they would all have to come to his headquaters and account for themselves. The sonstant journeys to the chief which this entailed had its effect and the known thieves volunteered to end the crime wave. This they did effectively and thus Chief Fundikira proved the virtue of the saying "Set a thief to catch a thief." Topical song, with 3 conical drums, 2 played with sticks and 1 with hands.
