Laaroye! Ebora ti n’je ‘Latopa!
Esu n’gbe junction, o ba wo ko mansion.
When Laalu hands you a tomcat
expect him to come asking for the kittens!
Esu Laalu! Aba’won wo’ran ti won o ri da!
Be unrelenting in your anger oh!
Visit them with Olodumare’s judgment
The kind that births Aapon and Rogbodiyan
Esu Belete! Laalu Baba Ogboni!
Abamo dogs the steps of its sibling, Aapon!
May Abamo find residence in their homes
May they wail inconsolably and devoid of tears!
Laalu! My personal person! I almost forgot
I saw Oya with Sango, visiting Aremu Olodo’de
The one that sent you Adi and the fattened Lokili
Be implacably provoked original olowo ori Oya!
As it is with the billygoat, let it be unto them
Send Asise to live in their midst
Eedi! The one eyed father of hubrises
Let him find refuge in their company.
The drums that they have beaten proudly
Proclaiming their divinity above Olodumare’s
Tear their drums of pride and silence their gongs
Be implacable in your anger towards them!
Laalu! They have blamed you for the blood
The ones that they have shed unabated
From Lekki to Obigbo, Kaduna, and Ala Igbo
Find employment for Ogun in their fortresses
