And they continued walking and Eshu said: Don't look back, for the storm has cleansed that land.

They arrived where SHANGO was and IFA SHE knelt before SHANGO and greeted him, and he said to her:

we are going to eat AMALA, ILA and ISHU, which is what I have to offer you. They sat down to eat, but
IFA SHE was only thinking about her Father; and SHANGO said to himself: -Stay calm, your luck is

Three days later, IFA SHE was already convinced and SHANGO said to her: -I am going to put you with luck that
your father should have left you so that she is always with you. He took SHANGO, wrapped it in

not paying attention and not doing the Ebó, to show Orúnmila that he would never be left alone, passed a
military magazine.

Some time passed and one of those Sundays when the King's family went for a walk by the seaside, while being
Suddenly, a waterspout formed there, taking away the entire royal family.

On Earth EWAYE NI IFA lived an Awó, named ADIYOKO, who sat on a stone that
I was at the foot of a Ceiba tree -ARAGBA-, which was bare.

This Awó suffered from suffocation and always asked SHANGO and OLOKUN, but he was very
worried because he thought they did not hear his plea. And he was wrong, for they did hear him.

In that land, the trees had no leaves and the wind did not arrive, and the Awó, who was not baptized,
One day, leaning against the tree, he fell asleep and dreamed of ODUDUWA, who said to him: -The stone on which
you sit down is Eshu Lawana; you have to baptize her and for that you have to talk to your father
ONIBARANIREGUN, who lives on Earth AÑAÑAKUN ORUN, to go look for OYA and
she may be your godmother. In the dream, he heard a song that said:

“This is a message from the god of creation, the beautiful one, the source of abundance, the one who is like the gentle breeze of the ocean.”
When she woke up, a very strong wind arrived and the trees began to fill with leaves. The first
it was the Ceiba -ARAGBA-, where he was lying down.

He began to feel better and saw a shadow that said to him: Keep this in this güiro, for someday it will...
It will be needed. Awó ADIYOKO took the güiro and buried it at the foot of the Ceiba and then went on the road.
singing:

A DAY FOR THE DEATH OF THE FATHER OF THE ANCESTORS WHO LIVES IN THE LAND OF REBIRTH

He arrived at the land AÑAÑAKUN ORUN, where his Father lived, knelt down, giving him MO-FORIBALE and
asking for his blessing. The father hugged him and said: -You have a great luck.

Awó ADIYOKO told his Father about the dream he had and he, upon hearing it, became very happy and gave him
he said: - Let's go where OYA and OLOKUN are, so that they can baptize you at the foot of ODUDUWA, so that
ODUDUWA is consecrated. But one must carry a bell made from this plant, which is called Framboyán.

They set out on the road to the Earth ENI BOSHE INLE and there they met OYA and OLOKUN, who
they were talking about the difficulties of the world and to whom he would give luck. They, who were going through the
they were walking, singing:

Oh mother, open the door, oh breeze, let the leaves dance in the presence of the ghost.

And along the way, the shadow of the dream reappeared to them, which was OSANYIN and said to them: -There it is
they will find everything.

They greeted OYA and OLOKUN, and they, informed of the problem of Awó ADIYOKO, said to him: -
We must look for ODUDUWA. And OLOKUN said to him: -I will be your godfather and ODUDUWA will be the one who you...

Awó ADIYOKO and his father collected the leaves, mainly those of Ceiba -ARAGBA- and OYA.

from the whirlwind, they sang:

THE SKY IS BEAUTIFUL, I LOVE THE SKY


THE FATE OF THE WORLD DEPENDS ON THE SPIRITS AND THE DIVINATION OF THE UNIVERSE

Then, they put everything in the güiro and the shadow appeared to them again, which is an Egun that goes
inside the güiro, and he put in a hummingbird and a Zunzún. SHANGO arrived and gave him a stone and said:
Put it inside the güiro and feed it with Egun a shashará chicken, take out its heart, tongue, and the

to be a slave, helping him to plant. Let him carry his own burden, let him keep planting, as for me
I am going to the path to see if I can reach where ORUNMILA is, so that he can have me by his side.

FATHER HURRY HURRY MONEY FATHER HURRY


FATHER, WE ARE CRYING FOR HELP IN LIFE, FATHER, HELP US
A good day is a blessing, father, do not be troubled.

Eshu, who heard this, said: -Who has died?. And he asked OLOKUN where he was coming from. And this
he answered: I come from the house of ORUNMILA, who has died. Eshu began to cry and mourn, and
OLOKUN said: -Come with me.

When they were on the road, suddenly OLOKUN disappeared and Eshu continued talking alone.
When he realized, he asked and said: -What is this?. And he kept walking, very sad. But for the
