Great! This reminds me of my childhood. Each time the moon shine so brigh, it is time to play 'bread and butter pass ...' Ere Osupa. The one that I have found resourceful is 'oni dende'; Oni dende o, saworo dede Osun, meaning 'one who returns caused the seer to become severe, the accurate Osun'. Dende is actually deinde, someone that came back (from exhile). Hence she enraged the seer. But trust Osun, she was never scared by the seer, hence it is said 'Osun ki' Osun was aki[nkanju]-brave Obinrin-woman. 'KI' is to stand your ground with boldness. Men, I love Osun parole, she was an ordinary lady, but she was so intelligent. |
