• Under The Bamboo tree (1903)

Down in the jungles lived a maid
Of royal blood though dusky shade
A marked impression once she made
Upon a Zulu from Matabooloo

And every morning he would be
Down underneath the bamboo tree
A waitin' there his love to see
And then to her he'd sing, to her he'd sing

If you like-a me, like I like-a you
And we like-a both the same
I like-a say this very day
I like-a change your name

'Cause I love-a you and love-a you true
And if you-a love-a me
One live as two, two live as one
Under the bamboo tree

This little story strange but true
Is often told in Mataboo,
Of how this Zulu tried to woo
His jungle lady in tropics shady;
Although the scene was miles away,
Right here at home I dare to say,
You’ll hear some Zulu every day,
Gush out this soft refrain.
