K'a má fi kánjú j'aiyé.
K'a má fi wàrà-wàrà n'okùn orò.
Ohun à bâ if s'àgbà,
K'a má if se'binu.
Bi a bá de'bi t'o tútù,

K'a tun bò wá r'èhìn oràn wo;
Nitori àti sùn ara eni ni.

Contextual translation in English:

Let us not live life hurriedly.{fast lane}
Let us not seek the rope of wealth impatiently.
That, to which we ought to apply mature judgment,
Let us not deal with, in a state of anger.
When we arrive at a watershed,{milestone}
Let us calm down fully;
Let us give prolonged contemplation to the future;
and let us give deep consideration to the consequences of our actions.
This is because of our aftermath…(eventual) passing. ..Legacy..very important to the Yoruba race.
