lyrics

The night is crawling in, the sun is setting
Just like yesterday.
Birds are flopping, songbird singing,
Its been a good day
Mothers calling on their sons and daughters,
Waiting for their men to come.
Fire's crackling, food is coking,
Scent of the night fills the air.
Farmers singing, hunters whistling,
Dogs are barking, Ile ti ya.
Its been a good day.

Amí n relé
Ile la mi n lo
Agbe kan o le roko roko
Ko gbagbe ile

Ko si bi a se roko lo titi, Kama ronu ile,
Ko si bi a se rajo lo titi, kama ranti ile
Bomode ba sere lo titi, a ranti ile
Bagba ba sere lo titi, a ranti ile.
Eledua ko so wa lo oo
Eledua ko so wa bo oo
Ami n rele awa

Amí n relé
Ile la mi n lo
Agbe kan o le roko roko
Ko gbagbe ile

Ko sibi ta ale lo, to le dabi ile mi,
Any time i remember my home,
I miss my mothers jollof rice.
Ko sibi ta ale lo, to le dabi ile mi,
I miss my dad, i miss my mom,
I miss my brothers, I miss my everything.

Amí n relé
Ile la mi n lo
Agbe kan o le roko roko
Ko gbagbe ile
