Abstract
Emir Zarmakwai of Dosso (Emir of Dosso) was the most popular and influential Zarma emirs of his time, not only within Francophone but also among Anglophone countries. His popularity could be attributed to certain qualities that include kindness, generosity, friendliness and peacemaking. These are the qualities that influenced his diplomatic ties with other emirs. Emir of Kabi Muhmmadu Shehe (1953-1959) was among his friends. Their closeness influenced Aliyu Dandawo a popular court musician at Kebbi place to compose two poems in his honour. This paper is a glance to the harmony displayed in the context of the said poems.
