A Story of Ifa
Elegibo, enchanted city
Elegibo, your royal majesty
Araketu, Candomblé ritual
Exalts the cities of Ketu and Sapé
Injured, the man sought revenge
Using his powers
Difficult years passed
Many beings suffered
The vassals were left without pasture
The fauna and flora no longer bloomed
The women became sterile
The flower of their sex will never open
He, He
He, He, Elegibo
Elegibo, Elegibo He, He
He, He, Elegibo
Elegibo, Elegibo
Gleaming city (Elegibo)
Fluorescent city (Elegibo)

Fluorescent city (Elegibo)
The warriors fought among themselves
With stick blows, it was the ritual
For several hours
Battles raged between good and evil
Then they returned with the king
To the sacred forest
Where they ate the well-cooked
Yam dough
To be eaten by all their
Black men in communion with God
He, He
He, He, Elegibo
Elegibo, Elegibo He, He
He, He, Elegibo
Elegibo, Elegibo
