Love Triangle

Here she is 
The sunlight that stands on the hut of every man 

Here she is 
The mirror of Ojoto 

Beads 
Oh! beads are made in her name 
But she's a heart that flirt with bags of fortune 

Here is Edufa 
A burning flame in the eyes of Maduka and Chike 

Edufa 

The heart of Chike is no China in the sun 
You came to make treasures out of it 
But now carry tenderness in your womb.

Last night 
You came out of Maduka's hut 
Looking coy and gracious 
Flapping your hair in front of him and laughing at his cares 

Charming goddess of daylight 
Sharing your wrapper with Maduka and Chike 
Is precarious 

Chike is a war dagger 
He will hit at your chest 

Maduka is a hard sword 
Waving in the wind 

He will drink your blood 

And these two strong hearts are sweet brothers in the battlefield 

Now the war drum is beating 
Edufa it is beating 

The same night you slept on Maduka's lap for his golden cup 

Chike was searching for you with the lantern of love 

But how come 
The lamp of hope took him to Maduka's hut for a common laughter 

How come 
These two strong hearts 
Deceived their sword to kill love 
Just because of a sunflower.

An African thunderstorm 
Went against trees as a mockingbird fleed in tears 

And i smelt blood 
I smelt blood everywhere 

The blood of Chike 
Maduka and Edufa 
Flowing in the green pasture of love 

I saw blood littered on different leafs 

I washed my tears with the water of Ojoto 
Hoping that in the glimpse of time 
This cloud will pass by.

Here she stands 
On my painted wall 

Here is Edufa 
The golden sunset of Ojoto
