Hello my NL people. I am engaged to this guy I absolutely adore and I just wanna blow his mind. I want to compose an Oriki for him. He's an Ibadan boy and I understand Yoruba Oriki varies from towns. Kindly help this calabar babe put the final icing on her cake ![]() |

Ibadan mesi Ogo, nile Oluyole. Ilu Ogunmola, olodogbo keri loju ogun. Ilu Ibikunle alagbala jaya-jaya. Ilu Ajayi, o gbori Efon se filafila. Ilu Latosa, Aare-ona kakanfo. Ibadan Omo ajoro sun. Omo a je Igbin yoo,fi ikarahun fo ri mu. Ibadan maja-maja bii tojo kin-in-ni, eyi too ja aladuugbo gbogbo logun, Ibadan ki ba ni s’ore ai mu ni lo s’ogun. Ibadan Kure! Ibadan beere ki o too wo o, Ni bi Olè gbe n jare Olohun. B’Ibadan ti n gbonile bee lo n gba Ajoji. Eleyele lomi ti teru-tomo ‘Layipo n mu. Asejire lomi abumu-buwe nile Ibadan. A ki waye ka maa larun kan lara, Ija igboro larun Ibadan . Jenepas:The above is Ibadan's oriki(eulogy); trust me. I wish you the best. ....and, i do know how you feel. Language/culture differences in relationship is the definition of ROMANCE. |

xreal:Does the Oriki you wrote Eulogize Ibadan only? I need something that focuses on him mainly. Eulogizing him as a person. |

Jenepas:Yes, Ibadan native alone, just as you requested in your first post. |
