Mushin

Mushin Ajina
   Bojiojimi
   Eruobodo, ogongo baba eiye
   Ofigbogbo ara shogun bi olosha
   Gidigbalo dawa omowipe ebi npa omo enikankan
   Iluola ti ki nsekan labo afi kobuyari
   Iluoola baba Dimeji
   Eniyan ogoro nwo e goro
   Awon dobodi yes ma poshe
   Woni otigun igi re  koja ewe
   Igba  ti ba edun nile odi obo
   Igba ti ba enle odi irawe
   Agba de okuro lewe
   Won omowipe aiye ominira lonje
   Olaju totun lala
   Odiju otun riran
   Mawominiran baba Fatai         
   Ewo ketona
   Ena ketora
   Enibitin to fowo ola gbaniloju
   Arinja lojawa
   Ago, ago lona ni ti jalo
   Malu ja odi bolo oya mi
   Ashoromo
   Ashorowo
   Ashorokan
   Ajagungbade
   Fibeyenle jo!

I love your Mushin man-lol. Sasakosa, the more you look the less you see a man that crossed river niger with ordinary piece of paper, one that was born in 19 kurukuru with no calender...hugs
