Otura Meji, ture re fun mi

The travelers in front who you could not keep up with 
Those behind who you refused to wait for
If one cannot catch up to those in front
One needs to wait for those behind
These were Ifa's declarations to Obaluaiye
When coming from heaven to earth 
He was advised to offer sacrifice
The travelers in front who you could not keep up with 
Those behind who you refused to wait for
If one cannot catch up to those in front
One needs to wait for those behind
These were Ifa's declarations to Esu Odara
When coming from heaven to earth 
He was advised to offer sacrifice
The travelers in front who you could not keep up with 
Those behind who you refused to wait for
If one cannot catch up to those in front
One needs to wait for those behind
These were Ifa's declarations to Iyami Osoronga
When coming from heaven to earth 
She was advised to offer sacrifice
The travelers in front who you could not keep up with 
Those behind who you refused to wait for
If one cannot catch up to those in front
One needs to wait for those behind
These were Ifa's declarations to Orunmila
When coming from heaven to earth 
He was advised to offer sacrifice
Only Orunmila complied with the advice of the babalawo
When they got to the earth
Only Orunmila was living in comfort
The other three conspired
And planned to ruin all he had in life
He was advised to offer sacrifice
He was told that it was the evil plans of his siblings
He complied by offering the sacrifice
Now, all the money I have belongs to you
All my money belongs to you
Baba Olode o!
Is it because I am rich that you are angry?
All my money belongs to you
All the wives I have belong to you
All my wives belong to you
Laalu o! 
Is it because of my wives that you are angry?
All my wives belong to you
All the children belong to you
All my children belong to you
Iya o! 
Is it because of my children that you are angry?
All my children belong to you
Now, Sonponna, take okete
Do not take human life
All my money belongs to you
Baba Olode, please take okete
Do not take human life
All y money belongs to you
Esu, please take okete
Do not take human life
All my wives belong to you
Laalu, please take okete
And spare human life
All my wives belong to you
Iyami, please take okete
Do not take human life
All the children I have belong to you
Osoronga, please take okete
and spare human life
All my children belong to you
