Description:This is a war song is sung while the drum is being beaten high. The singer is talking about the huge black grey bull with a horn like the ones of Bagaara’s ‘an Arab nomadic tribe name after bager ‘cow’’ bull. The horns are up right that can simply harm another bull when they have a fight. The singer is not really talking of a real bull, but he actually talking about his courageous people who have been enemies to jur ‘stranger’ known as one an Arab’s tribes. This bull is not tied by rope made to tie it, but remains untied, which the singer is trying to say that their people must be free in their land like their black grey bull roaming about in the cattle camp. The singer again talks about his people who are desperately angry as a result of Bagaara attacks against them. He wishes kites and vultures eat meat of the dead people killed in the battle between Bagaara and them (the Dinka in Malut area) when God helps them defeat the enemy. The singer says that his people must remain firm like the pillars in the middle of the cattle byre when the enemy tries to stray them.
