If Two Babalawo Meet Each Other,  They Will Be Like Children from the Same Mother

Bi ode meji ba ko raa won
Won a jo mikoro mikoro
Bi agbe miji ba ko raa won
Won a si jo miwoya-miwoya
Bi babalawo meji ba ko raa won
Won a dabi iyekan
Won a se iroke gbondorigi-gbon dorigi
Won a se irukere tiemi tiemi
Dia fun Alengba
Ti yoo maa ran fa koko
Ti yoo si ran oogun koko

If two hunters meet each other
They will dance with their hunting tools in their hands
If two farmers meet each other
They will hold their hoes while embracing each other
If two Babalawo meet each other
They will be like children from the same mother
They will wave their Iroke at each other
They will also greet each other with Irukere in their hands
These were Ifa’s message for Alengba
Who would study Ifa extensively
And study medicine extensively
