Iwo oye
Emi oye
Oye di meji
O dododo
Adifa fun baba yeku ile
Adifa baba yeku ode
Won barawon sore atilewa
Won niki won o rubo
Ki won omaba jo ku lojo kana
Won ni ki won o fi aso kana ti won jo da
Ati oruko kaakan rubo
Won pawo leke
Won oosa lole
Won worun yanyan bieni tio ni ku mo laye
Won koti ogboin sebo… Aboru Aboye!
You will survive
I will survive
Makes two survivors
Brings the truth
Cast divination for baba yeku in the house
Cast divination for baba yeku in the farm
The two are friends from creation
They were beseeched to make sacrifice so that they will not die on the same day
They should use a cloth that both of them had for the sacrifice
And a big cock
They called the awo a liar
And called orisa a thief
They looked up at the heavens scornfully as if they will never depart the earth
They turned deaf ears to the call for sacrifice… Aboru Aboye!
