Verse 1
He who finds a wife has found a good thing
And obtains favour from the Lord
You've found the harmony to the song you sing
You can do anything in one accord
You are her father and her brother
and her lover and her cover
and her teacher and her everything
She is your mother and your sister
and your lover and you cover
and your teacher your everything
Oni imole aye re
So don't take her smile away
Oni alo balu re
From today your wedding day

Repeat Chorus 3x

Verse 2
It's your wedding day, so be happy and rejoice
Whatever they say, today you made your choice
This is only when one and one is one
Ololufe, together you belong
Oni imole aye re
So don't take her smile away
Oni alo balu re
From today your wedding day

Repeat Chorus 3x

Verse 3
The Lord is your shepherd, you shall not want
He will lead you by the still waters
He's always there, so you have nothing to fear
Come on, say
Bye bye, bye bye to mommy
Bye bye, bye bye to daddy
You want to be with your wifey
Bye bye, bye bye to mommy
You want to be with your hussy
Bye bye, bye bye to daddy
Mommy don't cry
Cause your baby girl has become a woman
Daddy don't cry
Cause your baby boy has become a man today
Bye bye bye - bye bye, bye bye to mommy
Bye bye bye - bye bye, bye bye to daddy
Bye bye bye - bye bye, bye bye to mommy
Bye bye bye - bye bye, bye bye to daddy
Bye bye bye - bye bye, bye bye to mommy
Bye bye bye - bye bye, bye bye to daddy
Brother don't cry, sister don't cry
Auntie don't cry, uncle don't cry
