Africa On Then

In the days of agony, The axe was stronger than the gun, At that era, men worked with the axe than any other tool, Days when liturgy was the way of life, Edge was the name of the drum, When it sounds, The message is sent to all men, And their spirits are awakened, Egunmu was the name of the dance, The dance only for the strong, Caro was the name of the bride, The unique bride, only for the wise, Dororima was the spirit of encouragement, Saying thank you, And as such, making you want to do more, Ju was the messenger, Going all the domestic errands for men. Those were the days when men were really men.
