Ibaṣé Oṣun Sengese OloIya Iyun, Awede bi eni we ide omo oladekoju Ore Yeye ooo. Oh Iya Mi, Come and help us. Yeye Oṣun, know what is good for our life. Yeye Oṣun, don’t let us cry. Help us chase away all crying matters. You gave birth to the world. And the world comes to you giving sacrifice. We beg you Iya for instructions and to hear our pleads.

Teach us Yeye Oṣunand be patient with man and be patient with those who follow our traditional values of Ifa. And yoruba traditions Let the deeds of those who are on the frontline everyday go unnoticed. Our doctors, nurses, police officers, firefighters, construction workers, grocery store workers, pharmacist, gas station workers, postal workers, utilities workers, garbage workers, transportation drivers and anyone who has to still work outside their homes. Put a hedge of protection around them so they may return home safe with no sickness.

Iya Mi, Mother of Mothers protect our children while they are home, help them to maintain peace of mind during this challenging time. Allow them to maintain their knowledge and continue to learn new things. Guide the school districts to make decisions that are children and family centered during this crisis. Assist the teachers so that they may still support their students and families simultaneously.

Oṣun we praise you, we give thanks, we magnify your name. Hear our voices and prays. You always come when we praise you with our humbled hearts. You have saved us in the past and we thank you. Oṣun preserve our happiness for we dream and pray of goodness and unconditional love to reign over the earth again.

Iya Mi protect and strengthen our Oloyes, Babalawos, Iyanifas, and Olorisas as they listen to your messages and guide our community back to loving each other unconditionally, maintaining impeccable health, having sustainable living, and supporting our collective community.

Ore Yeye ooo Oṣun!!! We pray that this prayer be accepted and promise to praise you. From our pure hearts to your ear, we all say out loud, Aṣẹ Aṣẹ Aṣẹ oooo
