Yoruba Proverb

Yoruba proverb 
An old saying 
Words of the fathers of fathers 
Incentive of the wise spring of ancestral vales 
The word is just so original like a laconic phrase 
Expressing a basic truth 


It find lost words
What an helpful morpheme
An obscure saying, but
So rare in the mouth of the youths
For they should be acquainted to this colloquial, for that 
Old is coming for them soon.
