Remii:Thank You so much, at least the picture is getting more clear! That the woman is singing with her husband is amazing! A member of Christ Embassy? Then Pastor Chris must sack her from the choir! We the non yorubas still want full content of her song, |

I don't even know her, means she's not yet a star. |

The song is, in the tradition of Juju music, quite long. I have just finished writing down the lyrics, Yourba is not easy to write or translate for one not formally trained in the language. Trust me I know, as I am a native speaker but whose parents are not even Yoruba. All my formal Yoruba training was two years of infant school; the first two years of the Awolowo free primary system. For those of you wondering, I am an "omo eko"! It will take a while to translate the entire lyrics, but fortunately, St. Janet sang the intro in English Here it is:
The rest of the song is 99% Yoruba. I will post as I translate, when I get around to it. However, the most incendiary part, which I think got her banned, are these lines: Ani, omoge meta lo'n m'oko doExcuse me!, I do not have the Yoruba font set on my pc. English translation, line by line: Now, only three damsels know how to Zap You bet the Cherubs, Celes and Christ Embassy folks are not amused! Stay tuned for the rest, it is very entertaining. |

"Only 3 ladies know how to bleep . . . . Cherubim, Celestial & Christ Embassy. . . . " Well, maybe she does have a point there! |
