Kúyíwá Dẹ́dẹ́ Lẹhi (Forgive them All)
Achọ yi maabo
Achọ yi nancha
Ọhẹ
When
one feel
wronged by the Sun,
mistreated and
let down by one’ shadow.
Ọdịnya no dobụ
mịa jé tábọ gébébé
ọlè noyọńyàn
Achọlè á júácha á tá koká
Finding
closure from the Moon
and seeking
and getting
justice from the Rain
will only smolder one’ scar
Ọhẹ ná dá jẹ na yì
achọhí nọle mpéchẹ
Achọ hi gày pìụwa
nọhẹ che liyuwá
Ultimately,
one have to seek
healing from forgiving all,
most importantly, oneself.
