Lyrics
Ìpè tó dún bá wa lójijì.
Eni tó bá ló lè ròhin rè.
Tony Allen ti sípò padà.
Sùgbón títí láé nìrántíì re yóó wà.
(It was a sudden call.
A painful narration to share. Tony Allen's transition shall forever
be remembered).
Smile on you are celebrated.
Shine on, shine on you are a star.
Smile on you are celebrated.
Smile on, smile on you've done us proud.
O Ò ódigbéré o, ódàrìnnàkò.
Ó dojú àlá o - erínwó.
O dewúrée jeléjelé.
O dàgùtàn-an jemòjemò.
O daláàmú tíí je légbèé ògiri.
O dàgbàrá òjò - oò yalémó.
Ìpàdé desè odò - ó dòhún oo.
(You've transcended to the spirit land
with the ancestors. We shall meet no more until
eternity).
Smile on you are celebrated.
Shine on, shine on you are a star.
Ká tóó rérin - ó digbó.
Ká tóó réfòn - ó dòdàn o.
(You are one in a million, a rare gem indeed).
Héè Diípò gbáyé o - ó seeni ire.
Tony Allen ó dòrun-un 're.
O gbá'yé o - o hùwàa're.
Tony Allen ó dòrun-un 're.
Háà ó dòhún o - ó desè odò.
Tony Allen ó dòrun-un 're.
Ìpéjopò ìdùnnú lafi rántíì re.
Tony Allen ó dòrun-un 're.
Aya, omo àtomoo'mo wón gbèyìn-ìn re.
Tony Allen ó dòrun-un 're.
Isé tóo se sílè kòlè bàjé láé.
Tony Allen ó dòrun-un 're.
Ebí, ará, òré o wón sèdáròò 're.
Tony Allen ó dòrun-un 're.
Àjoyò dídùn ni lafi sè 'dáròò re.
Tony Allen ó dòrun-un 're.
(You were a man of depute and dignity.
You leaved a noble and honored life.
The gathering of the family, friends,
loved ones and fans remembered and celebrated
you greatly.
Adieu!!! Until we meet at the bank of the river).
