Orekelewa!
The beautiful angel
With dazzling eyes like the stars
Her hair black, full and fresh
Stretch down the horizon of her shoulders
Her long straight legs
Reminds me of the elegance of Iroko
Her skin like the mirror
Reflects the mysteries buried in the sun
You are the desires of kings and princes
The prize the rich will gladly pay
But your choice is a poor resilient black boy
I am your dream in dark cloudless nights
The custodian of your love
It is I your love you chose
Over wealth and riches....
