the love and power
of the flaming fire
Had created the whole universe!
While the love and care of the Waters
Gives nourishment to feed what the fire created!
And the amazing power of the Soil gives the body
to cloth and beautify the creation of fire
And the mighty air gives her part to give every living a life to breath!
Oh the mighty Gods of the universe!
You are one and goes together as one!
You are the perfect
mirror of love and
marriage!
When each of you
Can't move without
another!
Oh flaming fire that gives me the power to move!
Oh living water my
feeding and nourishing
Oh soil of beauty who gives birth to my body!
Almighty air that can't
be tired
Filtering each sweet moment for me to continually breath!
Oh Gods of the Universe!
Are the Gods of this land
No one will be able to know you and no one ubderstand!
For your greatness and power is high above our able!
And behold you are with us and we are living continuously with you!
Fire Water Soil and Air
Ancestors call you
sweetly ... Eke Orie Afor Nkwo
My spirit will rejoice with you forever
