Oyeku-Owonrin
Oyin-sese cast for Guluye.
The told him to offer a piece of clothing
that was seen yesterday, because he had
insulted the father of Guruje. Ebo:
a piece of clothing and a goat, in order
for an insult not to lead to a fatal fight. Ifa divination texts from Jaap Verduijn's Odu Ifa Corpus. Ifa as a divination method is found in many countries in West Africa. However, the Yoruba peoples of (mainly) Nigeria have perfected it. The presented texts are translations, rewritings and interpretations of original Yoruba divination verses, in which the traditional "poetry-like" cadence and rhythm has been preserved and/or recreated as far as the English language allows. The visual structure of the texts in writing is according to tradition - there is no such thing as a line break or a paragraph in Ifa chanting. The texts are part of my "working corpus" as an Ifa diviner. More about Ifa on http://www.qondio.com/mama.pl?a=intelshow&i=17751 |
