Beautiful Nubia - Lekeleke lyrics

rate me

Lekeleke nfo l'oke, eye funfun ni<br />

Lekeleke nfo loke, eye funfun ni<br />

Aso ala ni mo wo elepo ya fun mi<br />

Lekeleke nbo l'ona eye funfun ni<br />

Fo, maa fo, maa fo, eye olola<br />

Bo, maa bo, maa bo, eye onire<br />

Sometimes I wish I could fly like a bird in the sky - away, away<br />

With the love and the strength of the fathers<br />

In the blessing of the spirits of the sky<br />

In the warmth of the bosom of the mothers<br />

With the knowledge and the wisdom that I need <br />

To set my people free, set my people free...<br />

O nbo l'ona, eye oba ni ko se to o <br />

O nb'onile wi, o nkilo f'alejo, o ni e maa so'ra o<br />

E ma fi'ya j'opo, at'omo oku orun<br />

O ni e f'eso s'aye, e ma te talaka mo'le mo o<br />

O nbo l'ona, eye oba ni... <br />

Awon omode ilu, won wa ko'ra won jo, won fe so'ko p'eye<br />

Eye ko, eye o ku, nse lo nfo, nse lo nbe lat'igi s'igi<br />

Awon agbagba ilu, won wa ko'ra won jo<br />

Won fe l'eye l'oko<br />

Won k'ada jade, won k'ake jade, won nge gi oko<br />

O di ka, o di ko<br />

Eye ko, eye o ku, nse lo nfo, nse lo nbe lat'igi s'igi<br />

L'aipe l'aijina, won ge gbogbo igi tan, o wa ku'gi kan l'oko<br />

Igi iroko, igi ti gbogbo aye nfe, eyi ti gbogbo aye nbo<br />

O di ka, odi ko, ko ma ku gi kan loko o!<br />

Ko wa pe l'eye fo lo o - pagidari igi da<br />

Pagidari igi da, eye fo lo o...
