Description:The singer praises her bull Maker (white and with black flanks). She compares the brightness of her bull with the rainbow. She is proud of her clan (=Akuei Awang’s clan); and of the fact that they didn’t experience poverty; and of the fact that their cattle camp is surrounded with many bulls. Also she appreciates the way her mother-in-law manages the family with her good heart. She asked her grandmother to pray for the gods of the clan / the ancestor spirits, so that the peace would prevail. These deities are the god of river and the god of the river-lizard, and also the Ayuel wiir totem, a river spirit who brings cold wind, which is associated with peace. The river lizard, with whom the clan is connected, has the same colour as a frog. She says: the frog is ‘rain cow’: it makes noises when it sees a cloud; then rain will fall.
