Pepe is the Ifa priest of the House;
Otita is the lfa priest of Outside;
It is the Ethiopian swallow who builds his nest
And curves its entrance downward.
The nest ifa neither on water
Nor clearly on dry land.
lts entrance just droops down in a curve.
Ifa divination was performed for Oyepolii
Offspring of sacrifice-makers at Ifa
Whose mother would die and leave him
All alone in his early childhood.
When Oyepol(t grew up,
He did not know the sacrifices and taboos of his
father’s household.
His life became confused.
He looked for a wife to marry,
But he found none.
In addition, he had no comfort at home
He added two cowry-shells to three,
And went to an Ifa priest for divination.
He was told that the sacrifices and taboos of his
father’s household
Which he had neglected
Were the cause of his troubles.
He was told to go
To the graves of his ancestors
To beg for power and authority.
After he had done as he was ordered,
He started to enjoy his life.
He started to have money.
He had a wife.
And he had children.
He said that was exactly what his Ifa priests had predicted.

All sacrifice-makers of heaven
Come quickly
And help to perform this sacrifice.
