The music refers to Xitique, a contribution habit where Chope women till the land in a collective way

"I feel sorry for you that you are not part of the contributions group.
You'll spend all your time begging because you don't want to contribute to others.
Then you will be the person who will always ask for help from others. Too bad for you!"
