True brother, this song reminds me when I was little my mum used to sing it. She told us how our grandpa used to sing this song early in the morning so everyone could get up and go work in the fields 😊

Stumbled upon it and I swear I thought it was from Miriam Makeba. This is a good listen as I drive to lake Naivasha on a Saturday evening after corona.
Back then koBulawayo hundreds of workers would be seen streaming to the giant factories were they participated in processing Mthwakazi's cotton, tobacco, timber, leather, beef, milk, iron and steel, coal, raw rubber and clay into valuable goods for a national and international market of consumers. Pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, men and women, including vendors of all backgrounds herded towards koNtuthuziyathunqa were weekly wages brought smiles and joyous township music.
Same memories but the song wasn't about workers going to the factories it was about waking up to the dawn of freedom and calling for the populace to join the work to free them selves
According to: discogs.com; Sekusile - The song begins with the cocks crowing to encourage everyone to arise and start the new day. The lyrics being, "Wake up ladies and gentlemen, another day has begun so let us prepare for work."
Ilford Boy you reading it like the white man was supposed to read it ,the cock crowing was the dawn of freedom ,at that time it was happening in the north ,it was a a wake up call
🎼Wake up gentlemen, the new day has started. 🎶The cock has crowed. 🎸Wake up gentlemen, the new day has started. 🎼He who sits and does nothing will suffer from poverty 🎵
This song reminds me of my late Grandfather Captain Legwale. May his soul continue to rest in peace 🙏🕯️

Why do female singers not sing in this affectations-free style anymore? No gimmickry or other cheap tricks. Just pure vocal beauty.
