Ikekime Ire Ota

1. Use Awaji ochieekbe

Okinyi unye ’jit.

Sa inu chi tap me ikwaan̄

Mokaan̄ utoon̄-ejit.

Ire ichechieek kwun̄ inye,

Ikpochieek inyi ochep.

Awaji mogbana owu;

Mirọ inyi owu ‘nye.

2. Ima okaan̄ me adasi,

Kachieek ibe iwọ.

Ire ene echak owu,

Kakaan̄ ukpook ge ge.

Inu geelek okakọt irọ,

Tap me uriaak nyi Awaji.

Ọmọ monyi owu unye,

obokọt isa ime.

3. Ebi ime ire ota

Ema ke ibonyan̄a.

Awaji ’ge erieen̄ kiban̄,

Isun̄ me nkeek kan̄.

Ire eji mikweek inye;

Mebọkọ mkpukpe ime.

Jioba moriak lek kiji;

Ire eji kpewọ lek.
