Mohapeloa completed ‘Hukung’ in 1976, publishing it in Cape Town in 1976 as song No. 23 of 25 in his songbook Meluluetsa ea Ntšetso-pele le Bosechaba Lesotho (Anthems for the Development of the Lesotho Nation). Hukung is a small town – in Mohapeloa’s day a village – in the Mohale’s Hook district of south-west Lesotho, just across the border from the South African village of Zastron. It gives a positive, friendly view of this village, which also features in another song by Mohapeloa, ‘Mapetle a Hukung’.
