The Ging Gang Gooli Story
In the deepest darkest Africa, there is a legend concerning the
Great Grey Ghost Elephant. Every year, after the rains, the
great grey ghost elephant arose from the mists and wandered
throughout the land at dawn. When he came to a village, he
would stop and sniff the air, then he would either go around
the village or through it. If he went around the village, the
village would have a prosperous year, if he went through it,
there would be hunger and drought.

The village of Wat-Cha had been visited three years in a row


by the elephant and things were very bad indeed. The village
leader, Ging-Ganga was very worried, as was the village
medicine man Hay-la-shay. Together, they decided to do
something about the problem.

Now, Ging-Ganga and his warriors were huge men with big
shields and spears. They decided to stand in the path of the
elephant and shake their shields and spears at it to frighten it
away. Hay-la-shay and his followers were going to cast
magic spells to deter the elephant by shaking their medicine
bags as the elephant approached which made the sound
shalli-walli, shalli-walli, shalli-walli, shalli-walli.

Very early in the morning of the day the Great Gray Elephant
came, the villagers gathered at the edge of the village, on one
side were Ging-Ganga and his warriors, (indicate right) and
on the other was Hay-la-shay and his followers (indicate
left). As they waited the warriors sang softly about their
leader…

And they shook their medicine bags

By the blazing council firelight,


We have met in comradeship
tonight,
Round about, the whispering trees,
Guard our golden memories

deep,
Till we meet again.
