Ṣọ̀npọ̀nná (Ọbalúayé)   

Sanponna
Oni wowo ado
A rumo loogun danu
Alagbada
Omo olowo
Omo oloro
Okeke ariyun keyawo
O ni ohun ti a ba ni la fi ke aya eni
O ko belemu dogbere
O belemu ja gbangba oko
Afonkale bi eeru
Ariiro ala
Toluwa lemi oo se
O o lewu o wo mi
Bi se n wo dudu ni n wo funfun
A feyi winiwini bora sun
Obaluaye, baba agba
Sanponna, baba ode
 
 
 
 
Sanponna
He who has plenty small gourds
He who destroys people's medicines
He who likes agbada style
The owner of money
The owner of wealth
He who pampers the wife with coral beads
He says it is whatever one has that one uses to pamper one's wife
You do not follow the palm wine taper long
Still, you follow the palm wine tapper to the farm
He who spreads in the house like ashes
The dream that is difficult to demystify
It is the Lord's wish that I will do
Do not you have cloth to dress me
As he puts on black so he puts on white
He who uses multi-coloured cloth as night gown
Obaluaye, the old man
Sanponna, the man outside
