Olas From the Niger To Debbie Guzzie

From the distance shores of the Niger I have come, O good friend With glittering 'Ola ocha and ola edo' from our ancient river As precious presents to you my good friend From the treasury fold of my grandfather O friend, I brought these these olas in honor of our friendship As time's feet crawl and crawl little further O friend I pray the sea of life spares your sailing ship Here from the dark hole of my oil-rich black field O friend I wire prayers across the Atlantic Ocean As your birthday balloons dance in the open field O friend may God package more glorious years with passion Dedicated to Debbie Guzzie. Note: ola ocha and ola edo are silver and gold in Igbo tribe in West Africa Niger is the biggest river in Nigeria I have said this before and must continue saying it. Among the wonderful people on earth Deb is the best. This is the least I can offer on her birthday! HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEB!
