The group plays, and she sings and dances all around the village before returning to the tree.

Mbube a capella
The word mbube means "lion" in Zulu. Traditionally performed a cappella, the style is sung in a powerful and loud way. The style itself dates, according to Joseph Shabalala (leader and founder of Ladysmith Black Mambazo), to the times when young South African Zulu men left their families to travel to the big cities to find work — often in mines. In order to preserve a sense of community, these young men would form choirs and play Mbube music.
