Answer Details

In this excerpt from Okot P'Bitek's "Horn of My Love," the persona expresses a sense of longing and a desire for connection with their love. The persona is asking if anyone has heard the sound of their lover's horn and expressing the hope that they will be reunited. This suggests that the overriding feeling of the persona is "anxiety," which is a feeling of unease or uncertainty about the future. The persona is anxious because they are separated from their lover and do not know when they will be reunited. The use of the phrase "well-known" suggests that the persona has heard the horn before and is familiar with its sound, which may be a source of comfort in their anxiety.
