    Shona people

    The Shona (/ˈʃoʊnə/) are a group of Bantu people in Zimbabwe and some neighbouring countries. The main part of them is divided into five major clans and adjacent to some people of very similar culture and languages. Therefore, there are various interpretations whom to subsume to the Shona proper and whom only to the Shona family.

    Shona regional classification

    The Shona people are divided into Western Shonas (Bakalanga) and Eastern Shonas. Ethnologue notes that the language of the western Shona is mutually intelligible with the main dialects of the estern Shona, but counts them separately.

    Bailar Pegado

    by: Chayanne

    Bailar de lejos no es bailar
    Es como estar bailando solo
    Tú bailando en tu volcán y a dos metros de ti
    Bailando yo en el polo
    Probemos una sola vez
    Bailar pegados con más fuego
    Abrazados al compás, sin separar jamás
    Tu cuerpo de mi cuerpo
    Bailar pegados es bailar
    Igual que baila el mar con los delfines
    Corazón con corazón en un solo salón, dos bailarines
    Abrazadísimos los dos, acariciándonos
    Sintiéndonos la piel, nuestra balada va a sonar
    Vamos a probar, probar el arte de volar
    Bailar pegados es bailar
    Bailar pegados es bailar, es bailar
    Verás la música después
    Te va pidiendo un beso a gritos
    Y te sube por los pies,
    Un algo que no ves, lo que nunca se ha escrito
    Bailar pegados es bailar
    Igual que baila el mar con los delfines
    Corazón con corazón en un solo salón, dos bailarines, oh
    Abrazadísimos los dos, acariciándonos
    Sintiéndonos la piel, nuestra balada va a sonar
    Vamos a probar, probar el arte de volar
    Bailar pegados es bailar
