Ba mi wo o l'awoye

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

First, you have to watch both.  You will cry a lot, I warn you.

Saroo must learn to survive alone in Kolkata, before ultimately being adopted by an Australian couple. Twenty five years later, armed with only a handful of memories, his unwavering determination, and a revolutionary technology known as Google Earth, he sets out to find his lost family and finally return to his first home. - Reviews
