All of them step inside your hemisphere
Then you hang like a pendulum
But you never dare to throw them into the water
An art of men over the deep gorge
Uniting Chigonabweka and the other side
Ropes and bamboo surrounding you.
Wires stripping along
We forget not our forefathers,
For bringing this knowledge
The knowledge for the common goodness
Kandewe my bridge
(Kandewe is the name of a basket bridge that unites two communities in Malawi, first constructed in 1904)
