This eulogy is dedicated to the Ajebos and Indomie generation Pikin.
E wa nka fi'di le, Ki e ma bawa ka lo bi a o ti yanana re ki o le ye gbogbo wa yekeyeke.

ORIKI IYAN:
Iyan funfun lele

Oba ninu ounje

Ijoye atata lawujo okele

Osupa abe iti

Aran ma dele ole

Ore ila olobe egusi

Imule tete

Ko si obe ti ko ba re

Gbegiri nikan ni eewo re

Lafun ni ounje won ni le alake

Amala ni ounje won nile mesiogo

Iyan ni ounje won ni le obokun

Ajeboko doweke

Ajedigbo lu oko

Ajeboko rerin ofofo

Aje pooyi rohin bii eni mu'ti oyinbo yo.

Wow. Correct. I love freshly pounded iyan but cannot pound anything. My best food is iyan but after eating I am like zombie everywhere. Iyan and egusi with fresh palm oil that is not over fried is bae. I can’t contain my excitement when I see it. grin
