The sky seems starless
Coldly blue night
In my bed so empty

Years have gone
And it's just like yesterday
The pains intensify

Just like yesterday
Expecting today
In the fear of tomorrow

Years gone and the pains live
'Mowa pelu e omo iya mi',
But they've all left
And their backs companions

Alone I still stand
In the field of loneliness
Waiting for someone
Or something to rescue me

If one appears in all
And raise my head up again

But alas there's no one
I'm all alone in my plight
Racing my eyes ahead of time!
