Poem about greeting the Babaláwo:


 Babaláwo mo yìnbærú



Örúnmìlà mo yìnbæyè



Gbogbo Awo mo yìnbæ«í«÷



Onílé mo kágò kí n tó wælé



Béwúré ò bá kágò, á dáràn àmúso



Bágùtàn ò bá kágò, á dáràn àmúso



Èmi ké àbærú-bæyè o, Awo!

Ìtúmö

(translation)

Babaláwo , I praise propitiating (bæ)  and giving sacrifice (rú)  
Ọ̀rúnmìlà,  I praise propitiating and surviving (yè)
All Awo,  I praise propitiating that causes happenings («í«÷)
Owner of the house I greet before I enter
If the goat doesn't call out "àgò", he/she creates a problem (i.e. commits an offense with the punishment of) being taken and tied
If the sheep  doesn't call out "ago", he/she creates a problem (with the punishment of) being taken and tied
I call out "propitiation, sacrificing, propitiation, surviving"   o, Awo!
