Winds of Earth, winds of heaven bless me
Homage to the mother of nine
Winds of heaven, winds of Earth give me peace
Homage to Oya
Winds of heaven, winds of Earth
I beseech you, mother of nine

Song

Oya is supreme
The sneer does not affect honey
Oya is supreme
The sneer does not affect honey
Honey will remain sweet inspite of the sneer
Oya is supreme
The sneer does not affect honey


Sango got the password to Oya 2c
Olubanbi, Afonja, Ewelere o
Sango got the password to Oya.




Oya, the one equal to the task of bearing the buffalo's horn.
The owner of the thunder missile.
The female version of Ogun
The woman hunter
Oya, the charming woman who laid down her life for her husband.
What kind of person is this Oya?
Anywhere Oya abides explodes!!
A woman, calm like when a calabash is broken
Oya whom the enemies glimpsed and threw their calabash away because of her.
Yeepa Yee Oya o!
I fear only you
Wind of death
The female version of Ogun always with her gun corked!
Oya o Oya to to to to
Oya who tidies things up fast
Quick and fast is Oya's way
She walks steathily like a nomad
She is the Queen of all women
Otiti, beautiful all over
Yeepa mother of nine
Homage to you


Oya opere lala oyan
Who put a basket of kolanuts before her husband.
Oya opere, she does not really mean it when she offers you food
Oya is the owner of osin, let the owner of that food not distribute it to others.
Oya pere like a fallen leaf
Oya, strong wind like a raging fire.
Oya pere do not fall the tree in my backyard!
Oya, clothed with fire. If you are looking for Oya and can not find her, check her at the kola depot where she is stuffing her mouth with kewu, check her at the depot of osun where she is creaming herself, check her at the stand of bata drummers, where she is dancing

Iya, Iya, I announced I will start consuming Oya's excreta.

They said No, I should not do that.
I said 'What then should I be doing?'

They said I should make haste and give gifts of clothing to Oya, I should rearrange the cast kolanut lobes to mean blessings


Oya, you got the sword and you are yet to start killing?
Mother of nine, you got the sword and you are yet to start beheading people?
You ask 'Why would I swordfight?'

My mother, rounded like a woman's full breast
The rat is for Oje while the Egun is for Oya
Oya, always ready to lay down her life for her husband, she rounds things up in fast motion
Mother of nine, not fit for captivity,
The strong wind that fells trees in her inlaws backyard,
The strong woman that saves her husband from ridicule.

I pay homage, I pay homage.

Ase Edumare
Edumare Ase.
