TRANSLATION OF OFUN MEJI:

Fingers came as a bunch on hand 

While thumb almost disentangle from the bunch 

Did Ifa consultations for Olodumare, the molder of the wholesome universe 

Oyin fere fere, the sage of Orunmila dynasty 

I became foremost at infant 

Did Ifa consultations for Oodua, He that descended on chains to the earth 

Oyin fere fere the sage or priest Alaràn house 

Did Ifa consultations for all È-je-n-din-lógún, the cult 

Those that will confer to download the secrets of the universe 

On the high sea...
