lyrics
Lyin ye Olorun wa
Oba to ngbo adura
Ogo ye Olorun wa
Oba to ngbo adura
Halleluiah
Awa yin o, Olorun wa
Awa je wo re pe iwo l'oluwa
Awon miran j'ewo wipe sango l'olorun won
Awon miran j'ewo wipe ifa l'olorun won
Awon miran j'ewo wipe ogun l'olorun won
Awa je wo re pe iwo l'oluwa
lwo l'eni t'awa eniyan re, a yin l'ogo oba titi lai
lwo l'eni t'awa eniyan re, a gbe o ga oba titi lai
Oba nla, oba awon oba
Gbingbinikin j'iwo j'iwo ileke
Arugbo ojo jojo
Oba l'oni, oba l'ana oba titiaye ainipekun
T'alo dabi re ninu alagbara
T'alo dabi re ninu orile ede
T'alo dabi re ninu eniyan
Iwo ni Olorun, oba mi okitibaramu n'iwaju farao
Oba mi gbingbinikin j'iwo j'iwo ileke
Oba awon oba, oluwa awon oluwa
You are the Lord of all, You are the Lord of hosts
You are the ancient of days, the Rose of Sharon
Lilly of the valley, the "I am who I am"
The creator of all, we worship You
We give glory, we give honour
We give all adoration
[Trans.
Praises be unto our God, our prayer -answering King
Glory be unto God, our prayer - answering King
We praise you, our God
We proclaim that you are the Lord.
Some proclaim that a god of thunder is their God
Some proclaim that the diviner is their God
Some others proclaim that a god of iron is their God
We proclaim that You are our God
You are the one that your people praise 'till eternity,
You are the one that your people lift high 'till eternity
King of kings
More beautiful and honourable than a collection of beads
Long and ancient of days
King today, King yesterday and King forever more
Who's like unto thee among the powerful
Who's like unto thee among the nations
Who's like unto thee among the people
You are the God, insurmountable mountain before pharaoh
My King that's more beautiful and honourable than a collection of beads
King of kings and Lord of lords]
