Awelewa Poem by Adedamola Quadri Adeniyi

AWELEWA (Beauty Lord)

Mojirola Amoke Orekelewa Omidan, Her beauty struck every creature
Like the camellic evergreen Flowering shrub.

Aponbepore Arewa Oleyinju Ege
,
Her allure utter chamomile of
Peace and pure love.
Who then can deny not seeing her
When she majestically pass by?
Ajanaku koja mori nkan firi
Who can deny not seeing her?

You are the dew that beautify
The most adorable rose of life
.
Awelewa Omidan jo jen ma ba e lo
Ife re ni n pami bi oti elemi meje
,
Eyin enu re funfun ni n dami lorun
Eyin oju re ni n lami laya
,
Ibadi Ileke re lo n wu mi.

Her charming Orisabunmi
Hairstyle makes men go crazy
,
Eni okunri ri ti o ni bi eleyi o je
Aya eni a si je ale eni
Beauriful lord of beauty.

Tell Osun laketi the godess of
Beauty that you are the Beauty lord
.
Voice out to Yemoja godess of ocean
That you got the natures beauty
.
Inform Obatala the god of purity
That your beauty is as pure a honey
.
Speak it to Ogun god of iron that
Your beauty shakes the world
.
Dont forget to inform Sango god
Of thunder that your beauty strike
Down the gaze of men
.

Opolopo eye lowa laye amo eye Okin lo rewa ju,
Amidst Womanhood you are differ
Omoge oreke lewa, omode tofi gbo Gbo ara sin gbere oge, oreke lewa Oloju ede, mio kuku dubule aisan
Sebi aree ife re lo mumi, ife re npa
Mi bi oti onirawo meje, jowo se
Temi. Mo nife re, jowo se temi
I cherish you most as a woman
,
Mofe fi e se aya Mofe fe o nisu loka
Mofe gbe o niyawo.
