ABEENI (10 Years Of Solitude) by Detayo7(m): 10:31pm On Oct 03, 2016 |
*ÀBÈNÍ* ( 10 years of solitude) Àbèní,today is that day Streams ceased to flow, Green leaves turned brown And birds stopped to sing Àbèní, today I lie Not on soft wooly beds But on sharp rocky stones In remembrance of that day That day was ten years ago Under the dongoyaro tree Where we sat on dead brown leaves As the sun kissed our faces That day you broke our oath For you were betrothed to Àrèmú Àrèmú, my childhood friend Who I trusted more than myself Àbèní, this ten years of solitude Are like mist that veils distant hills For my streams of love have ceased to flow Green leaves in my heart have lost colour And the birds that sing of love sing no more Àbèní, I Olusegun , Omo bábà olóde( the son of the hunter) long for your return #O.A.O 3 Likes 1 Share |
