performed by Ladysmith Black Mambazo
The original title was "Mbube," which means "lion." It was a hunting song originally sung in Zulu in what is now Swaziland.
This was popularized in the 1930s by South African singer Solomon Linda, who recorded it in 1939 with his group, The Evening Birds. Apparently they were a bold bunch, and got the idea for this from when they used to chase lions who were going after the cattle owned by their families.
music has that power =)
