Beneath the canopy of dreams fulfilled,
I sat adorned, my gele proudly tied.
A bride, a wife, my heart full of joy now fulfilled,
Besides my Oko, my strength, my pride.
The day I long dreamt of now casts its glow,
Though whisperers rose, they faded beneath the sun.
Who to honor most? Let grudges go,
For peace descends like blessings from Orun.
A sea of aso ebi, colours so bright,
Men in agbada, like children dancing with glee.
Laughter and music fill the air as day melts into night-
Oh, what a gift to know such unity.
The bata drums, the voices rise, they sing,
This is Ayo, my hearts eternal spring.
