[Intro]
O matin yeyeye, o matin yeyeye
[Verse 1]
O matin, the sun awake in my chest
I whisper prayers, I’m trying my best
Bimolo, bimosejade, ancestors bless the way
Baba jowo somi ooo, lead me through the day
[Pre-Chorus]
Oluwa Jo gbami, don’t leave my side
I’m walking this road with faith as my guide
[Chorus]
O matin, yeyeye, otun wayayi yeyeye
Omatin, omalatin, lift me high today
O matin yeyeye, ye ye, keep fear at bay
Oluwa, stay with me, nao omo l’okan wa
[Verse 2]
Aye o gbiyanju, but we rise again
Molo, molo, strength in every grain
Bimo, bimosejade, brighter paths I seek
Somọ o, baba jowo, hear my humble cheek
[Pre-Chorus]
Oluwa Jo gbami, stay close and true
Wrap me in mercy as morning breaks through
[Chorus]
O matin, yeyeye, otun wayayi yeyeye
Omatin, omalatin, lift me high today
O matin yeyeye, ye ye, keep fear at bay
Oluwa, stay with me, nao omo l’okan wa
[Bridge]
If the night grows long, I’ll hum this refrain
With faith as my compass, I’ll rise again
[Chorus]
O matin, yeyeye, otun wayayi yeyeye
Omatin, omalatin, lift me high today
O matin yeyeye, ye ye, keep fear at bay
Oluwa, stay with me, nao omo l’okan wa
[Outro]
O matin yeyeye, o matin yeyeye, with you I’m whole
Oluwa Jo gbami, bimolo, bimosejade, soul whole
