Motun Ti De Gege Bi Mo Se N DeI’ve returned, just as I always do.
Mo Ti Be Olodumare Ki Baba Ba Mi SeI’ve prayed to ‘Olodumare’, the Supreme Being, that the Father helps me succeed.
Mo Lo Irinajo Awon Ota Won O Fe Ki N DeI went on a journey where my enemies didn’t want me to arrive.
Sugbon Ifa Olokun Baba Ti Ba Mi SeBut ‘Ifa Olokun’, the father of the ocean, has already made it happen for me.
Mo Mo Pe Orin Ti Mo Fe Ko YiiI know that this song I’m about to write,
Won Ma Gb’ogunWill surely face attacks,
Sugbon Eni Logo Ko Le SalailogunBut a person of glory can’t avoid having enemies.
Eni N Lo Lasan Won Mu Okuta Gan Won Tun So FunEven an innocent passerby gets stones thrown at them.
Mo Mo Pe Ifa A Ba Mi SegunI know that ‘Ifa’ will help me conquer.
Bi Erin Ba Ji Erin A Ki Olu’gboWhen the elephant wakes, it greets the king of the forest.
Bi Efon Ba’ji Efon A Ki Olu OdanWhen the buffalo wakes, it greets the king of the savannah.
Erin To Ba Ji Ti Ko Ba K’olu’gboAn elephant that wakes and doesn’t greet the king of the forest,
Beeni Efon To Ba Ji Ti Ko Ba K’olu OdanAnd a buffalo that wakes and doesn’t greet the king of the savannah,
Awon Mejeji Won Fi Ara Won Fi KasaAre both just asking for trouble.
Mi Ba Tija Wa Beeni Mi Ba Tere WaI didn’t come looking for a fight, nor did I come looking for friendship.
Ti Won Ba Ni Isoro Awa Naa Na Ma SabaIf they have a problem, then they’ll have to face us.
Awon To N Fi Oruko Mii Gba Yin Le Gan Won Ni IfaThose using my name to earn your trust are themselves a test from ‘Ifa’.
