The Journey
He never knew his father. He never met him or saw him while he lived. As a boy, his mother always told him of how his father was a great man. A famous musician and a pioneer, she always said of him. But who was his father exactly? Where was his family, how did they live, eat or drink? He grew up wanting to know more, to learn more about his roots. This is what he decided to find out for himself, by flying to Zimbabwe and visiting the famed diviner, Old Maposa.
Revelations
When he gets to Pungwe, he faithfully follows the instructions the old woman gave him. On the third day, as he steps out from under the waterfall, a misty yet luminous glow of light engulfs his very being. A vision of his father appears and presents him with a sole command. My son dearest, you are the leader of a family beyond the one your bloodline has bestowed on you, he says. Take your spot in the world and lead not as others do by brute and sword. I have given you the Mbira ye Vadzimu to be your spear and shield, a plough for your livelihood and an instrument for joy, merriment and entertainment. Be resilient and vigilant, Baba Maraire! He starts to play the mbira.

Rwendo
Chikuriro chake mujaya uyu akasaziva baba vake vekubereka. Amai vake vaigaro muudza kuti vaiva muimbi ane mukurumbira, asi iye anga asina kukwanisa kuona baba vake nemeso ake. Ndokusaka akafunga kushanya kunyika yeZimbabwe kuti azvionere pamhuno sefodya. Mhinduro kumibvunzo yake, yaiva nesvikiro rinemukurumbira, vaMaposa.
Zvakazarurwa
Mukusvika kuPungwe, kwaanoshamba nemvura yemapopoma sezvakarairwa muzviga zvake, mhute yemweya mutsvene inomugumbata. Meso ake anozarurwa, zvakavanzika zvinoonekwa. Sechiratidzo, baba vake vanozviratidza kwaari vachimupa zvirayo ne gwara reupenyu hwake. Anovanzwa vachiti: Wona Baba Maraire, ndiwe dangwe remusha wangu. Shingirira uri baba vemumhuri huru kupfuura yawakapiwa neropa. Uchava mutungamiri pamberi pevamwe. Usina pfumo kana gidi, nokuti rako gwara riri mumbira yawakabata. Yako mbira ichava gidi rokugwisa madzivo ako, mugoti wekubika sadza, mukoko uzere dopiro reuchi, gano rinokunda hondo dze Chimurenga. Ikwenye zvine ruwadzano neuchenjeri! Baba Maraire, anotanga kuridza mbira.
