If the community is well
This is how it is run
If the going is not well
This is how it's run
Atokun please do not fight
I beg you with our father
Alaagbaa
Alagba is the elder
This drink tastes so good
That's why I drank it

E le ma w'eegun gbogbo, e o le wo ti'wa o
E le ma weeee
E le ma w'eegun gbogbo e o le wo ti'wa
B'eegun ba subu
Iyamoje ni o gbe
E le ma w'eegun gbogbo, e o le wo ti'wa o

You can be looking at other Eegun, you can't see ours
You can be looking
You can be looking at other Eegun, you can't see ours
If Eegun should fall
Iyamoje will carry him
You can be looking at other Eegun, you can't
