Till Death Asunder
Ọ dịbeghị na Asụsụ Igbo. Na-egosi nke mbụ n'asụsụ English.
Water for blood
Sweat for sweat
Together as one
Covenant of two to one
And one as two
For better for worse
Forever, till death asunder
Sweat for sweat
Together as one
Covenant of two to one
And one as two
For better for worse
Forever, till death asunder
Heart and mind
Soul and body
Creation of generations
That begins with….
Two nations as one
Together forever, till death asunder
What other ritual
Could be more potent
Than this covalent bond
Of blood and water
Of family, together, as one
Together forever……
Till death asunder
