These lyrics were written for the movie.
“They have a good bass, but no tenor”
Thank you. I didn’t know the lyrics were specific to the movie.
Thanks for posting - what a fantastic scene. Zulu is a great movie - I need to watch it again, it’s been a long while.
Can you imagine being faced with those Zulu warriors & their displays, shield beating, etc.? Terrifying.

On a side note: The Zulu war display reminds me of the Maori Haka dance ... also terrifying if you were an enemy.
The NZ Blacks Rugby team does the haka ... that first “roar” gives me goose bumps. The NZ women’s team does the Haka, too. There are other teams that do war dances/chants: Tonga (Sipi Tua), Samoa (Manu Siva Tau), Fiji (Cibi). Watching the other teams trying to look as brave/tough while in the face of the Haka is interesting.

Super Sarcastic note:
Austin & Milley need to be watching this for an example of real men/leaders.
