Heron's song (The song of the Blue Crane)

Wilhelm Bleek notebooks

kabbo (Jantje) (II)

The Blue Crane goes along singing that the Krieboom berries are on her shoulder. There are verses for walking slowly, for running away from a man and for flapping her wings. These are also verses about a white stone splinter (for scraping skins).
