    If you work hard you can climb the mountain top
    'Cos nothing is too small
    And nothing is too big

    Ohun toju mi ti ri ah eyeh yea(What my eyes have seen, ye yeh)
    Don't let them tell you, "You can't"
    And they won't help you just so you know
    Just keep on pushing oh uhooo
    Ibi ti daddy mi o de, ma de be ma tu kòja oh(The heights my father was not able to attain, I will attain that height and surpass it)

    Wan ro pe ótan shugbon olórun so pe oku(They thought I was finished but God had other plans)
    Wan ro pe ótan shugbon olórun so pe oku eeeeeh(They thought it was over, but God said it’s not over yet!)
    Omo la'so n'aiye omo la'so n'aiye ooh(
    Children's are one's clothing in this life)
    Olaoshebikan o gbodo sun eh eye(
    Olaosebikan, you must not sleep (in heaven)!(7))
    Ko durotimi l'ojojumo(
    May you stand by me everyday)
    Ma je k'ota korin mi jo wo(Don’t let my enemies collide with my Ori (destiny), please!)
    Ibikibi to ba ti hun mo mò pe inu re dun
    Tori(Wherever you are, I know you are proud of me)
    Mo she rere n'aiye mi ah mo she rere
    Tori(Because I'm an achiever, I'm a success in my life!)

    Mo sh'oriire l'aiye mi o eh mo sh'oriire eeeh(I am fortunate in life, I'm an achiever)
    Mo she rere n'aiye ah mo she rere(I've done well in life.)
    1. The chorus is an age long folklore that has been handed down from generations of Ondo Ekimogun people of Ondo State in South West Nigeria. In ancient history, the Yoruba people live a communal lifestyle. The good of others is a plus to one. Unlike nowadays where people live independent of others and the dearth of communal goodwill, the song reminds us all of the greatness in communal living.
    2. meaning "my rejoicing with others has brought forth my own source of joy"
    3. "Uyo Meyo is a traditional Ondo saying from Nigeria that talks about rejoicing and happiness. The Ondo tribe is part of the larger Yoruba culture in South-West Nigeria."
    4. In African Traditional Religion, the place of “Ori” cannot be overemphasized. Ori, literally meaning “head,” refers to one’s spiritual intuition and destiny. It is the reflective spark of human consciousness embedded into the human essence, and therefore is often personified as an Orisha in its own right. Teni begs her Ori to let her prosper and guard her. She pleads with her Ori to open doors for her.
    5. Here she’s doing something called the “Oriki” its common among the Yoruba tribe in West Africa (Nigeria) which translates to “praise poetry”. The oríkì varies in length depending on whether it is the name given to a child to describe the future portents of the life or a recital of the accomplishments of a person’s clan. It is invoked to praise a child for bringing pride to the parents or to attempt to evoke virtuous character traits of bravery, fortitude and perseverance that are believed to be innate in a person by pedigree.
    6. Then she went on to invoke the spirit of her late father “Omoluwoleja Apata”
    7. In Yoruba traditional setting, the dead is saintly and a communication with the dead is expected to be done with a pure heart and soul. Again, she tapped into the rich Yoruba traditions by calling on the dead not to sleep. Yoruba believe a dead parent is the Guardian Spirit of his/her children. It is reciprocated. She has made him proud as a worthy child that has kept his name alive despite the wishes of the enemy to kill it off. She is demanding that he protects her in return cause she’s made her proud and he should be happy wherever he is.

    I could never forget this song. Teni's Uyo Meya gave me so much inspiration 2years ago while leaving everything I have worked for behind in Nigeria in search of greener pastures. It gave me strength when I felt discouraged and I wanted to give up. Thank God I took that decision, I am bigger and better now. Keep up the good work Teni darling. Just know that you inspire so many people - young and older people alike. We love what you do dear Teni 😘❤♥

    No word can describe how magnificent you are. I feel the cold breeze overwhelming ma superficial layer of the skin with a very cold thin film of moisture whenever the speaker banger uyo meyo is hitting and as well whenever someone calls me coz I tapped it as ma Ringtone.

      Music Translation for non-Yoruba speakers and Yoruba speakers
      “Ori’s” English translation is “head” but within the context of this song and the Yoruba language it translates to an individual’s “Divine Destiny”. To translate such an inspirational song literally is to erode the wealth of message being conveyed by the artist.!
      Chorus
      the joy that I express
      the joy that I express
      oh joy!
      the joy that I express for the good fortunes of others, that same joy is now mine
      Verse 2
      (The essence of ORI)
      What my eyes have seen eh eyeh
      oh the adversities that I have encountered
      Don’t let them tell you, “you can’t”
      And they won’t help you just so you know
      Just keep on pushing oh uhooo
      the height that my father could not attain
      I will attain and also surpass
      the height that my mother could not attain
      I will attain and also surpass
      my head (divine destiny), my head (divine destiny), I beg of you
      my head (divine destiny), oh pave the way for my heart's desire
      my head (destiny), do not slumber!

      The message in the song is the fact that everyone is Burn a winner. If you believe you will be. Where your parents couldn't get to, you will go beyond.

      It's my turn for people to rejoice with me just the way I've rejoiced with so many of them
      2:22 I will go above and beyond where my mother and father couldn't reach in life
      2:33 my head (my God) please make a way for me in this life
      2:39 my head (my God) do not sleep (please rise on my behalf)
      3:03 my hands are clean and pure (a Yoruba way of claiming innocence)
      3:08 I will walk tall heads up. till I get to the top
      3:12 calling her indigenous translational names reminding herself the daughter of who she is and how she will continue to hold on
      3:25 they thought and even said it's over with me but God said no. I'm just starting
      3:35 children covers nakedness better than clothes do for the body (African proverb)
      3:40 olaosebikan (her dead dad presumably) please do not sleep wherever you are. Walk with me everyday. don't let the enemies worry me
      3:55 wherever you are looking down on me (possible referring to her dad) I know you are happy because I'm making you proud
      4:05 I'm walking tall in life. Yes I'm

      Everybody’s born a winner
      If only you just believe yea eh yeh eh
      Close your eyes and come and see
      Don’t you worry about a thing nah
      Cause if you work hard
      You can get it if you work
      If you strive hard
      You can be just what you want
      If you work hard
      You can climb the mountain tall
      Cause nothing is too small
      And nothing is too big
      What my eyes have seen, eyeh
      Oun to ju mi ti ri ah, eyeh (what my eyes have seen)
      Don’t let them tell you “You Can’t”
      And they won’t help you, just so you know
      Just keep on pushing oh oh uh oh
      Ibi ti Daddy mi o de (where my father couldn’t reach)
      Ma de be ma tu koja (I’ll get there and I’ll pass)
      Ibi ti Mummy mi o de (where my mother couldn’t reach)
      Ma de be ma tu koja (I’ll get there and I’ll pass)
      Ori ori mi jowo (Oh my goodness I beg of you)
      Ori la no okan mi o (my head pave way for my thoughts)
      Ori ehhhh mi masun (my head don’t sleep)

      Music Translation for non-Yoruba speakers and Yoruba speakers
      “Ori’s” English translation is “head” but within the context of this song and the Yoruba language it translates to an individual’s “Divine Destiny”. To translate such an inspirational song literally is to erode the wealth of message being conveyed by the artist.!
      Chorus
      the joy that I express
      the joy that I express
      oh joy!
      the joy that I express for the good fortunes of others, that same joy is now mine
      Verse 2
      ( The essence of ORI)
      What my eyes have seen eh eyeh
      oh the adversities that I have encountered
      Don’t let them tell you, “you can’t”
      And they won’t help you just so you know
      Just keep on pushing oh uhooo
      the height that my father could not attain
      I will attain and also surpass
      the height that my mother could not attain
      I will attain and also surpass
      my head (divine destiny), my head (divine destiny), I beg of you
      my head (divine destiny), oh pave the way for my heart's desire
      my head (destiny), do not slumber!
      I have taken some time to provide a proper & full translation through this RUclips link : ruclips.net/video/udFhBTDoeIc/видео.html&ab_channel=Unotool
