Oya put one hand, let me feel alright :) - Boj, Show Dem Camp
In your opinion, who else has created silky-smooth palm-wine music in the past few years? ? ?

Prayer for Baby
Yoruba folk song: Bamiwo
Vocals by Ranti
Accompaniment by Cobhams
Lyrics and translation:
Ba mi wo o l'awoye
K'o ma se ba mi l'oruko je
Omo eyi ti o fi fun mi o
K'o ma se d'agbaya l'aye o
K'o ma se d'oku mo mi l'owo
Ba mi wo o l'awoye
K'o ma se d'agbaya l'aye o
Help me watch/nurse him/her to good/glory/greatness
May he not ruin my name
This child that you gave me
May he not become a foolish adult in life
May he not become a corpse in my hands
Help me watch him that he blossoms
Let him never be useless as an adult
Ba mi wo o l'awoye
K'o ma se da po mo egbekegbe
Omo eyi ti o fi fun mi o
K'o ma se j'iya ofo l'aye o
K'o ma se baje mo mi l'owo
Ba mi wo o l'awoye
K'o ma se j'iya ofo l'aye o
Help me watch him well
Let him not mix with bad company
This child you have given me
Let him not suffer pointlessly in this life
Let him not spoil in my lifetime
Help me watch him to prosper
Let him not suffer needlessly in life.
Ba mi wo o l'awoye
Ba mi wo o l'awoye
Ba mi wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye
Omo eyi ti o fi fun mi o
K'o ma se ba mi l'oruko je
Omo eyi ti o fi fun mi o
K'o ma se d'agbaya l'aye oBa mi wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye
Ba mi wo o l'awoye
Ba mi wo o l'awoye
Ba mi wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye
wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye
wo o, wo o, wo o l'awoye
