Lost glory restored Remix

Intro – spoken, soft]*

_“From the ashes of yesterday, a new dawn rises…”_

*Verse 1*

We walked through shadows, _ọjọ́ ti ṣọ̀wọn_ (days that passed)

Lost in the echo of a silent prayer, _ẹ̀bẹ̀_ (cry)

But hope still whispers, _gbaa mi_ (hold me)

_Ọ̀wọ́ rọ̀_ (the hand that lifts) is reaching for the sky.

*Pre‑Chorus*

_Mo n ṣe àgbà, mo n ṣe àgbà_ (I’m moving forward)

Every broken chain, _ti a ti fọ_ (that we broke)

Turns to fire, _ina_ (fire) in our veins,

We rise again, _tún dìde_ (stand up again).

*Chorus*

Lost glory, restored, _gbaa ìgbà_ (receive the time)

From the dust we rise, _kẹ́kẹ́_ (like a phoenix)

_Òrìṣà_ (gods) of our fate, we claim the crown,

_Ọ̀la wa_ (our tomorrow) is shining bright.

*Verse 2*

_Ọ̀pọ̀lọ̀pọ̀_ (many) tears fell, _ṣùgbọ́n_ (but) we kept the beat,

_Ọkọ̀_ (the road) was rough, yet we sang in the street,

_Egbẹ́_ (family) together, _a kọ_ (we sing) a song of triumph,

_Ọ̀rọ̀_ (words) of yesterday now turn to _ọ̀pá_ (victory).

*Bridge*

_Yé mi, yé mi_ (listen, listen) – the rhythm of the heart,

_Ọ̀pá_ (the staff) of destiny, _ti a gbé_ (that we carry)

Through the night, _a ó mọ̀_ (we will know) the light,

_Ọjọ́_ (the day) of glory, _ti a fẹ́_ (that we desire).

*Final Chorus (with harmonies)*

Lost glory, restored, _gbaa ìgbà_ (receive the time)

From the dust we rise, _kẹ́kẹ́_ (like a phoenix)

_Òrìṣà_ of our fate, we claim the crown,

_Ọ̀la wa_ is shining, _ti a ri_ (that we see).

_Ọ̀pá_ of the Lord, _gbaa wa_ (receive us)

_Ọ̀la_ forever, _gbaa wa_ (receive us) – _Amen._

*[Outro – spoken, fading]*

From lost to legend, we walk in glory
