Red Soil

Cosmopolitan it may seem
Humanity bursting at the seam
Diverse colours, almost obscene
All are heard, none are seen

Uniformity in diversity
Chaos in serenity
Ugliness doing beautifully
Still a village disguised as a city

Myriad and diversified
Complex and haughty
Confident, ununified
Of adulation, always worthy

Edo!
My land forever o!
Oba gha to kpe e

Da Sarig ko Sirig

Da sa maninai na da sa balakesan
Na lumangkap so tenggao,
Na imanto a gagawii na singayo akn so gagaw
Ogaid na di patot oba pangampit.

Kataya a tentengan nakn so gabon

Ogaid na sa gini a pitibarangan a mga sirig,
Na di ako dn sarig,
ka miyatanto a sii rka bo panarig.

Opama da maserep sa langit a sirig,
Na didn maboboko sabap
Ko katawan o badan go mokarna
A adn a numanayaw rakn a makindat a ulan....
