Culture › Re: Can Any Ibo or Yoruba Speakers Help Me? by pinkycute(f): 3:36am On Apr 09, 2015 |
Well, We all come from a particular culture. And our culture shapes who we are and how we are. It is our history, our ethnicity, our music, how we think, who we include, the food we eat, with whom we eat, the expressions we know, how and when we speak, the way we think and make judgments, and how we relate to each other and strangers. Sometimes our journey to unknown takes us to the edge of our understanding or to the outer boundaries of our comfort zone as we encounter different people or different cultures. You might be right with your opinion tho, but what baffles me about your opinion, is how you manage to remixes the "Song" and turn it to "Yoruba" the song is nothing related to Yoruba", as I can see.... The traditional dresses, wore by the women on that pic above.... Is similar to Igbo "traditional wears" I'll simply go with Ezeagu and Bigfrancis21, they've analysis the song, with enough historical backup.... We shouldn't be too surprise, the Op, might be wrong with some spellings tho, "So am not quoting you wrong" @Absolutesuccess, we are all here to learn!!..... absoluteSuccess: but to some extent, the song is equally intelligible in Yoruba, I'm not trying to spoil the party, brothers.
Gongo banan plantain me wo yo ibole ibole wo yo Helebu legba wo yo
Gongo is Yoruba for drumstick used in beating the drum known in Yoruba as gongon. You can compare the song 'Gongo Aso' by 9ice for instance.
Now the song:
Gongo...me wo yo My talking drum (banana) parade of joy, My earth ritual phenalia for parade of joy The stigmatized as devil, parade for joy.
wo in Yoruba is to move in one accord from place to place in celebration, it is iwo lu or iwode (e-war-day). But if your pronounciation is Wo as in Woe, that stands for a shout of joy.
Elebu is someone that was labeled wrongly or for disability 'eebu' is something that one can be mocked by.
Elebu is someone who has done anything that can be mocked. Legba is the Yoruba leader of old mocked as the devil. |

Missclasssy You are the joker here... At least if you don't have respect on human but please do have for God... By the way  look at who is talking... If you think this thread is meaningless to you and it's not supposed to be in Religion section.... Then move it to "Joke Section" if only you can Mofo  missclasssy: [color=#000050]It's a silly question and that's the truth, take it or leave it. In religion section, we ask intelligent and meaningful questions, not the rubbish you just asked.
The joke section isn't far away. That's the right place to ask such questions...... [/color] |
