EDIYE.

On the hills,
In the valley
A love like yours
I never knew still exists.

O goddess
Of beauty,
Warmth
And Love.

You drew
Me in,
I have never
Longed to leave.

Your charm disarm
The toughest of men.
The hearts of stone,
It melts with ease.

Ediye eyen awan
Come closer to me.
Your kiss I need,
On mornings so dull.

Your bosom
Gives comfort,
The kind (even) Arcadia
Cant offer.

My dearest
Filled with pleasure,
Wit
And wisdom.

What word
Or name
Can describe
Your sweetness?

Arewa obirin,
Pelu emi ati iwa
Aye mi ti dara.

Where we'll go
You will decide.
If you look away,
I'll accept with grief.

But till then
You still remain,
My smiling
Pearl of wisdom.
