Like an evergreen ballad
Wafts your melodious voice
In my receptive ears
Depositing an indelible
...
Stronger than brandy
So unfathomable and intriguing
Turning a man to some candy
When it inundates his garden
...
Though I am priceless
my price isn't high
my demand is little
my expectation simple
...
Reading the wonderful compositions
You effortlessly churn out
Give me some kick
Nothing negative at all
...
O bu onye ka uwa huru
Mechie onu ya n'ehi miri
Dika ulo ajadu
O bu onye ka uwa huru hapu
...
Pain is so carelessly doled out
From a monstrous fetish pot
A concoction from hell
By messengers of death
...
Mama! Mama! Mama!
Called I but “Nna di m”
Your usual response
Was not forthcoming
...
I know not a dowdy
And never will know any
Because none exists where I live
Where I work
...
Season of reaping tenaciously follows
Season of sowing as day follows night
And as a shepherd follows
His flock for certainly does one
...
Is the love you bear
Sensible and wise;
Nosey and inquisitive?
Watch out,
...
