Standing in a sea of spreading thoughts alone
Daydreaming once again, in the bloom of love
Beauty's everywhere, the heart's aglow
A new song has come to stay

But the bells are ringing, calling once again
Golden child, it's time to do some chores
Can't a lad have a moment of peace and quiet?
Hope I don't sound like I'm asking too much

Sitting in the dark making melodies
Sweet music propping up the soul
Here is everything I'm always longing for
Just to sing and dance for you

But the bells are ringing, calling once again
This is not the way it's meant to be
I should be like a gem hidden from hateful eyes
Hope it doesn't sound like I'm asking for war
I've been to the places hidden from the hordes
Listening to the voices of the wise ones
They speak in ancient riddles, but you will understand
If you just open up your mind
If you just open up your mind

Rere n toni, rere ni (gb'ori rẹ s'oke Ọmọ Akin)
Rere n t'ọlá, rere ni (gb'ori rẹ s'oke Ọmọ Akin)
Kiniun ìí ṣ'ẹgbẹ ologini
Ajanaku o ṣe digbolu
Taara l'ọna oninure (gb'ori rẹ s'oke Ọmọ Akin)
Gb'ori rẹ s'oke, oh-oh, oh

Standing in a sea of glowing fireflies
Everything so bright, every breath so light
Every new day I do something grand
Now, I know the path is clear
A song is all I need to get me on my way
A moment in the warm embrace of joy

Twirling to the sounds and rhythms of sweet relief
Hope I don't sound like I'm asking too much
Oh, the bells are ringing, calling once again
Golden child, it's time for you to shine
The floor is yours, and you can be all you want
Think I might just float away
I think I might just float away

Gb'ori rẹ s'oke
Gb'ori rẹ s'oke, Ọmọ Akin, gb'ori rẹ s'oke o
Gb'ori rẹ s'oke
Gb'ori rẹ s'oke, Ọmọ Akin, gb'ori rẹ s'oke o-o-o
Gb'ori rẹ s'oke
Gb'ori rẹ s'oke, Ọmọ Akin, gb'ori rẹ s'oke o

Gb'ori rẹ s'oke
Gb'ori rẹ s'oke, Ọmọ Akin, gb'ori rẹ s'oke o-o-o
Gb'ori rẹ s'oke
Gb'ori rẹ s'oke, Ọmọ Akin, gb'ori rẹ s'oke o
Gb'ori rẹ s'oke
