OLOKUN OF THE DEEP
YOU WERE HERE FROM THE BEGINNING,
WALKING UPON THE OCEAN
YOUR SACRED AND HOLY ABODE.
YOU SPOKE WITH GREAT WAVES AND TSUNAMIS,
FORMED WE LESSER BEINGS FROM NOTHING,
WE ARE ALIVE ONLY FOR YOUR SPORT.
OLOKUN OF THE DEEP
ONLY YOU REWARDS WITH YOUR HIDDEN RICHES,
YOUR UNFATHOMABLE WISDOM
WISER THAN ALL GOD AND MAN
I SPEAK TO YOU IN PROVERBS AND INCANTATIONS
BESEECHING YOUR WORKS OF ART.
OLOKUN OF THE DEEP
YOU WIPE OUT ENTIRE LINEAGES WITHOUT CAUSE
USE AND DESTROY WHOM EVER YOU PLEASE
NEVER GIVING BUT PAINFULLY COLLECTING FROM US
BUT WE BEING NEITHER IGNORANT NOR FOOLISH
PLAY OUR GANGAN, DANCING IN LARGE CONGREGATIONS
GIVING OFFERINGS AND BURNT SACRIFICES
TREMBLING AT THE PROMISED END
BUT ALL THINGS MUST COME TO A PHOENIX
FROM WHICH NEW LIFE IS BORN,
WE LAY PATIENT
FOR A RESTLESS FEET MAY WALK INTO A SNAKE PIT,
AND ONLY A FOOL TESTS THE DEPTH OF A RIVER WITH BOTH FEET.
