Voiced by Hilda Toubatla of the Mahotella Queens, ‘Hleziphi’ was one of Malombos’ most well-loved tunes in South Africa, where it gained the title of ‘the magical Hleziphi’ after appearing on the 1967 Malombo Jazz Makers Vol. 2 LP. The lyrics call to a girl, Hleziphi, to come home - ‘Come Hleziphi, bring the cows home to the kraal, it will rain soon’ and the song featured on the programme of the Into the Heart of Negritude show.
