Ofu is the name of asaan (negative incantation)

Arabamu is the name we call ogede (positive incantation)
They were the ones who performed ifa divination for Orunmila
When death and disease besieged his house
All evil forces lurked around his house
Orunmila said if it was for him and his children
Odundun says the evil should not be in my house
And should not come near my body
Tete has said that no evil should befall my house
And that no evil should befall my body
Rinrin is seen only in a cool place
Snail is always cool
Snail has no house where evil forces can enter
Eji Ogbe remove evil from me!
Shea butter container is always at ease

Translation
Arô dúdú gorí çÿin [The Black cripple hops on the horse]
Afe yin wini wini gún çfõn [The grinning one climbs the bull]
Gogowu ni ÿalágbêdç õrun [Gogowu the heavenly black smith]
Abona nìrókò àwôn ìyá rê àjë [Abona at the iroko tree, their witch mother]
They are the ones that forged the sharp iron for Ògún (God of Iron)
The large thunder axe stone for thunder (or Sàngó)
The horse and sickle was given to sanponna (God of small pox)
The 16 pieces (ikin palmnuts) was given to orunmila
The gong is what was assigned to our mother witches
They met orunmila on sand
When they were leaving heaven for earth
He (orunmila) asked what their mission was
They said they were going to destroy the world
They said the rich ones on earth will be made poor
Those that were poor will be forced to remain so
Those that were lucky will be made unlucky
Those that weren't will never be given the opportunity (To meet with luck)
Orunmila said if that's the case then am not going
They asked why?
Orunmila said if his child was rich
He wouldn't make him poor
He couldn't make the lucky one unlucky
He wouldn't prevent the poor one from getting rich
Then they asked him to bring
Some item for a ritual pact
Orunmila asked what he should bring
They said he should bring 4 canes
Orunmila put his hand in his pocket and brought 4 canes
They told him that if he reached earth he should take eru Alamo
And pound it with black soap
Then he should get original IYEROSUN
Make EJI OGBE impression on it
And chant this incantation on it
Then he should use this soap to bath his children
They promised that anyone marked with this soap
Ogun will not use his sharp iron to fight him
Thunder will not use his weapon (thunder axe stone) to fight him
Sonponna will not use his horse and sickle to harm him
Orunmila will not use his 16 pieces (palmnuts) to destroy his life
Ours mother witches will not use the gong of fear to destroy his life
We will mix the iyerosun with the soap and use it to bath regular
