Èkùrò là l’àbàkù Ewà
Some love vanishes when season shift,
But you—— you stay
Ìwò ni mo ri
When all I heard was silence,
But my spirit still reached for something holy.
In yoruba
They say,
‘Ekuro la l’ abaku Èwa—
b’ojò ń rò bòrún ñ ràn ‘
And it’s true.
You’re the timeless jewel
That weather cannot erase,
A smile that lingers where other fades
Your smile doesn’t shout
It arrives like memory ,
Like a prayer i once whispered and forgot.
A calm soul
Not just in sunshine,
But when everything falls apart
And if this fire is all I ever get right to rekindle.
Then I have lived well.
Because you—-
You are the flame that forgets how to die,
The stillness after the storm,
The soft forever.
