(Gentle guitar plucking)
Omo, listen to your father and mother now
We send you love, from Lagos to the world
Yeah, stay safe, stay warm, my son
Mukodas Ayobami Ayeni, my boy
Listen to the words from your father's mouth
The world is wide, but you have the light
Even when the road looks cold tonight
Stay strong, keep your head up high
We miss you here, but we know you'll fly
You will be great in life, Ayobami
No weapon formed against you shall prosper, oh
May you witness all the good things, son
We are praying for you, till the race is won
Oh, Ayobami, you go shine for sure
We love you more than words can ever cure
Your mother sits and wonders how you grow
Time is moving fast, even when it’s slow
Carry our blessings everywhere you go
If trouble comes, just tell them 'no'
You have a spirit that no one can tame
Keep the fire burning, keep your name
You will be great in life, Ayobami
No weapon formed against you shall prosper, oh
May you witness all the good things, son
We are praying for you, till the race is won
Oh, Ayobami, you go shine for sure
We love you more than words can ever cure
Stay safe, stay warm, in the night time
We are with you in every single sunshine
Distance is just a number, we are close
Your greatness is the thing we love the most
You will be great in life, Ayobami
No weapon formed against you shall prosper, oh
May you witness all the good things, son
We are praying for you, till the race is won
Oh, Ayobami, you go shine for sure
We miss you so much, my boy
Ayobami, Ayeni, you are our joy
Stay warm, oya, God bless you
