Alawiye Apa Kinni De Ikefa - Share your Stories. No Butty Allowed In

i was in Church the other day and alawiye came up for discussion. To my greatest surprise almost everyone has a favorite alawiye story. i remember ijapa and ojola. they were the most interesting characters. i vaguely remember alade who grew horns(alade hu iwo) and i can never forget

Ise ni ogun ise
mura si ise ore mi
ise ni a fi n di eni giga
ti a ko ba ri eni feyintin
bi ole la n ri
ti a ko ba ri eni gbekele
a tera mo ise eni,


share the stories that made an impression on u from alawiye

It is a Yoruba textbook. 

my favourite alawiye story is titled " OMO TO MO YA RE LOJU O. and it goes thus -
       omo to mo yare loju o
       osi yio to mo na paa
      iya to jiya po lori re
      baba to ji ya po lori re
      omo to mo ya re loju o
      osi yio to mo na paa

learnt it in primary two or so and still remember the words even now that i'm almost in my thirties. good old days

One goes like:

Iwe kiko laisi oko ati ada
Ko i pe, ko i pe
Ise agbe ni ise ilewa,
Eniti ko sise amajale etc

Very true
Nothing pays like hardwork
No paddy for jungle
