You

You...are more than everything and anything,
An actress that is perfect for any scene.
You...are the reason my heart beats like a "gbedu" 
A love, stronger than the nupe voodoo;

"Anipe..." You...are the rays of the sun bright and shiny
A mighty queen that make others look tiny.
You...are the reason the earth revolves,
The reason that my all my problem resolves;
"Orekelewa, " You ...are the edges of my sharpened dagger
That has slain those who dared to touch our ladder.
A prayer warrior that evokes fire to quench them all,
You ....are the reason "Alayinde" is standing tall;
You...are the best amongst the rest,
I wear your love around like an armoured vest.
