Lyrics

Se aprepara la eyibona
Pa´ dar comienzo a la obra
Su iyabo ta furulele
En prenda de cabiosile
Obdara se pone el dia
Pa saludar a papá
Un gallo coco y maiz
Que tambó ya ya ta soná
A la coco comí eyé
A la coco comí eyé
Obaicheré obaicheré
Chango irolo obaichere
Chango irolo obaichere
Obachuele, obachule obaé
Obaé obayana yana

Lyrics translation

The eyibona is being prepared
To start the work
Su Iyabo ta furulele
In cabiosile garment
Obdara gets the day
Pa say hello to dad
A coconut and corn Rooster
That tambó ya ya ta Sona
At the coconut I ate eyé
At the coconut I ate eyé
Obaichere obaichere
Chango irolo obaichere
Chango irolo obaichere
Obachuele, obachule obaé
Obaé obayana yana
