The Great Mother Oshun

“ I again salute the Great Mother, Oshun

The spirit of ADENLE

I again salute the Great Mother, Oshun

The spirit of ADUNNI

I again salute to the Great Mother, Oshun

It is homage that I will use today to pay respect to my predecessors

I pay homage for my songs

ADETAYUN, my mother

The nursing mother who suffers for the sake of her child

My mother is the woman who wiggles inside 0LOBO TUJE

A gazelle inside goodness

I will certainly adorn myself to go on an outing with the one who has children

My Mother!

Please deliver me!

In beautiful adornment I go on an outing with the one who has children!

ADETA O!

My very radiant Mother

Who slaughters IWO people’s chickens for food

EGBERONGE who is shy of white powder

OBARA-GESIN-LALU

The one with business acumen who knows that people are greater than wealth!

My Mother definitely knows that people are greater than money!

ADETA, the living child is greater than the ABIKU child!

There are children inside the aged

One who is greater than me

Oshun 0SOGBO O!

The secret Child is created!…”
