For Yoruba speakers who wanted a transcript of Sango's oriki, here it is: "Baale Koso, ariwo dola. Ina loju. Ina lenu. Gba bi ina jo l'aaro. O wolu baale lo ko kesi. Eye kekere a bi ohun tin-n-rere. Sun mo etile. Ma maa duro ni bode o. Sango Alade, to rele ana re duro. Igba ojule lo su si ko to malo. Inu mi run mi. O je koko gbegiri mefa. Orogbo ni e wa. Sango ko ni je obi o." I did my best to translate into English by adding annotations!
Eseun fun oro gidi yin o! A dupe pupo!
Sorry to have taken so long. I have to find time in between semesters and writing projects!
E ku ori re o! E bere Ile Iyaloja's lErin-Osun o. E joo, e ba mi ki won daadaa!
Ko to pe o! Ase o!

I really love this video and I only hope to see more of what they are doing with this wonderful presentation. I am not a drummer however I am a traditional worshipper of the Yoruba spiritual system and I would love to have more footage if you can share it. My name is Oluwole Ifakunle.
