Odun de Ayo o
Keresimesi Odun de o o
Keresimesi Odun de
Odun de Ayo o
Keresimesi Odun re o o
(Eni to so aiye mi da Ayo malode o e)

Ember months queuing
Everybody getting ready
For the greatest time of the year
Cities glowing hearts preparing for the greatest feast of the year
oooooooo

Repeat Chorus

Oya people moving
Hearts believing
11th hour miracle is on the way
(My miracle is on the way)
Oya kabo ibeji
Festivals of new life
Akoko opolopo ajoyo na so we see am
As we say Merry Christmas
We’ll soon be singing Happy new year
Odun tun tun yo je e
Odun Ayo ati alafia
So September, October November, December felele
Lodun ton bo ama se ajoyo,
Ama se ajoyo

But far above the feasts
And far above the lights
Is our dear saviour’s birth
The saviour of the world

Bridge:

Repeat
Abi Jesu o

But far above the feasts
And far above the lights
Is our dear saviour’s birth
The saviour of the world

Joyful Joyful
All creation sing
Ewa wo oun nla
Cos our saviour is born

Repeat Chorus
