ajanaku Dude I won't lie to you, this poem is a tough one. I might record it. If I record it, I'll post it when you and I are online together.

Ikunlẹ Abiyamọ
Igba Ikunle abiyamo ti de
Kiniun kerere mi ti n taminipa.
Ufe mi ti fe baye sere
Nigba irora abiyamo, isipopada re fokammi bale
Lale yii, ma fi owo mi gbe omo mi
Ebun eleda mi, ebi ife ko ni pa toripe ko si ife iya ko le ku lailai
Ade ori mi, jagun ni mo bi di
Bami soro, ife mi. Bawo ni oko mi? Kaabo.
Ijo awon balogun lo ti n jo la lati inu okan mi
Yeye Osun gbo igbe mi, O nu omije mi nu, o gbe e lati okan mi sinu ikun mi
Aya mi kun pelu wara ayo
Mo re ni ke titi di
Ojo ale mi
Translation
It is time for labor
My little lion has been kicking
My love has been wanting to play with the world
During labor pain, his movement comforts me
Tonight, I will hold my child with my hands and
My creator's gift, you will never hunger for love, because a mother’s love is forever
My (prince) crown, I gave birth to a warrior
Talk to me, my love. How are you, my husband (endearment)? Welcome.
You’ve been dancing the dance of the warriors from my heart
Goddess Osun heard my cries, wiped my tears, and carried you from my heart to my stomach
My chest filled with milk of joy
Now I have someone to care for
Till the last days of my life
Note: Phewww!! This topic was quite important for personal reasons. At first, I was going to write about a grieving mother of abiku, but it brought so much heaviness to my heart that I had to retract myself from finishing it. No woman should ever have to feel the loss of a newborn child. No, I've never been pregnant or loss a child, but know of someone who did.
Your turn: Iya ni wura iye biye. I know I know, it's 16 letters, so you can skip one letter.

Her Highness , Before I pass any comment, I'll like you to correct a subtle error you made. You are supposed to begin the sixth line with the alphabet "Ẹ" and not its variant, "E". I am sure you know they are two different alphabets in the Yoruba language. The fact say Gorilla and Orangutan resemble no mean say dem be the same thing. Abeg, no vex, make the correction.

E ma gba mi ke! Are you trying to say "Ẹ" and "E" are the same. Ileke, the poem is beautiful!...very beautiful! Sincerely, you tried. I never knew you could produce such a wonderful piece despite the nature of the title... "Aya mi kun pelu wara ayo..."
The above line drove me into some cool fantasies I wouldn't wanna disclose here.
"Kiniun kerere mi ti n taminipa..."That's cool!...very cool! Reminds me of one of Jesus' title - Kiniun eya Judah (The Lion of the tribe of Judah) I love your reference to Yeye Osun, who's also known as a goddess of fertility. Nice one, Ileke. I'm liking you more and more... Please, record it. Wouldn't it be nice to hear Ileke's voice?  |

I tried recording it, but I sounded funny pronouncing some of those words up there, so.....let's just keep it on paper for now lol. To summarize my poem: My poem tells a story of a TTC (trying to conceive). She cried to Yeye Osun for fertility. From Aboyun to Abiyamo, she tells a beautiful story of her progress; from feeling him kick to holding him and loving him for life. |
