ORIKI OBÀTÁLÁ

in #yoruba7 years ago

Let me tell you a story!!!

Do you know that when Olódumaré created the universe, Olódumaré made OBÀTÁLÁ to be the head of the divinities.
OBÀTÁLÁ can mean two things, Obà-ti-ó-nla (The great ruler) or Obà-ti-àlà (The king who dresses in white).

Obanlu o rin n eru oj ikutu s eru
Oba n ile Ifon alabalase oba patapata n’ ile iranje
O yo ke lekele at mi l’ ore
O gba a giri l’owo osika
O fi l’emi asoto l’owo
Oba Igbo oluwaiye re e o ke bi owu la
Oyi ala
Osun l’ala ofi koko ala rumo
Oba Igbo
Ase!
