Chorus
50 years, Ori mi, mo d’oya!
50 years, coolness, health, owo duro!
From 50 to 100, mo maa gbe, mo maa yo!
Ase, Ase, Ase!
Verse 1
Today I crown myself at 50, not because life was easy
But because my name is still clean, my Ori still dey
I chose healing over bitterness, truth when money called me
I chose coolness over fire, and my heart no turn cold
I served in hospital halls through the night
I raised children with fear of God, my hands dem hold tight
50 years of scars that taught me wisdom... 50 years, Ori mi, mo d’oya!
Chorus
50 years, Ori mi, mo d’oya!
50 years, coolness, health, owo duro!
From 50 to 100, mo maa gbe, mo maa yo!
Ase, Ase, Ase!
Verse 2
Half a century! Scars that taught me, hands that healed
Heart that forgave, soul that no yield
I didn’t just grow older — I grew wiser, softer, stronger
At 50 I’m not mourning years gone, I’m celebrating the elder I’ve become!
Next chapter: Coolness. Health. Money that stays. Children that rise
Cheers to 50! The best is still ahead, see my eyes!
50 down, forever to go... 50 years, coolness, health, owo duro!
Chorus
Verse 3 - Yoruba
Ojo yi, mo fi ade ori mi se oriki funra mi
Odun meedogun, mo ri ija, mo ri iwosan
Mo subu, mo dide. Oruko mi wa mimo
Lati ojo yi, mo wo ojo-ori: tutu, ilera, owo to duro, omo to goke
Mo gbadura fun odun ogorun. Mo gbadura fun ibadan-aye
From 50 to 100, mo maa gbe, mo maa yo! Ase!
Chorus x3
