TRADUCCION …

DRUMS, CHANTS AND EGBE IYALODE SONGS


These drummer should hold on for a while
The mother in Ipo city
A savior in Ofa city
The heavy dirty, difficult to carry, in Oro town
Who laughs at fighter Oro is the home of Iyalode
Should I play with you
And consider me like almighty god.
The diety we are playing with is not on earth
The powerful diety is in the heaven
We are born with money (Owalabi)
The female tree that is beautiful
The diety with colourful colth
The person that slaught
Animal his hand will touch blood
An elderly diety “My Lord”
That is inside room
I will not go out to display unless you say so
Who use small brass bells
To wakes up the children noon.
Who is wicked before appeasement
Egbe ogba do not punish me
I do not have anybody
The powerful one come quick and run fastly
