Adua! – Adewale Sobowale

On this land where
We never earned,
Yet, given were we
Benefits aplenty!

Afore then, despite
Not being right,
In coming in, we
Were relatively forgiven!

Treated were we
Like human beings,
Given human rights
Without a fight!

Our eleda pray!
Our children pray!
Our wombs pray!
Man and woman pray!

This land is blessed!
May it be repeated!
This land is productive!
May it be continued!

Kosekose,
Ni t’ilakose!
Ile yi se rere,
Emi naa se rere!
