Stories and patakíes

Idleness, stubbornness and disobedience

In the land of obayokoye lived Oba who was very poor, sad and disappointed to see her land not prosper because the people who lived there did not like to work and lived off what she looked for.

This had happened to Oba due to a curse of Shango, for with her power she believed herself very strong and had made her go through an embarrassment, then she went to live in that land whose name she herself had given it, it was a stunted land that was not recognized; when Oba arrived there she sang:

“ Obayokoye lodeo mamawo iba soreo.”

And the people started to come out from there, who were stunted and in bad health, but in their own way they lived well, Oba told them: I am going to help you so you can live better, and they answered her: we are happy like this.

Oba started to struggle with all these people, but she did not see the land obayokoye prosper.

One day Oba stood at the bank of a river and started to pray and ask Olofin to help her, then she started walking and arrived at the land of obaaye, where Shango lived together with Elegba, Shango, who saw her, hid and told Elegba: look there is Oba, go with her so you can help her, I am going to arrive before you and I am going to speak to those people from the land of obayokoye and whoever does not obey me I am going to hand over to Oggun and so he did it, everybody started working and producing before Oba and Elegba arrived.

When Oba and Elegba arrived, upon seeing what had happened, she became very happy and told Elegba, it seems that Olofin heard me.

Elegba answered her singing in this way:

“ Obanile onire Shango obanile baba guaye Shango.”

Oba started to cry from emotion over what Shango had done, then Elegba told her: look at what Shango left behind, Oba looked and saw six ota and Elegba told her, this you must attend to and give it etu to eat, Elegba after this started to court Oba and they had a son, whom they gave the name of that land, that is, obayokoye.

This son grew up but he also did not like to work and Oba was always complaining to Elegba, until one day he got annoyed, took obayokoye and put him on a road.

One day Shango passed by there and met omo obayokoye who told him, look how I am, Shango, and this one answered him, this has happened to you because of your disobedience, so you will live by destiny.

When Oggun and Ozain asked Olokun for forgiveness

When Olokun came down to earth he did so accompanied by yewa by order of Olofin, they lived in the depths of the sea, but one day tired of the monotony of his environment, he began to turn himself around at the bottom of the sea where yewa was also.

This phenomenon stirred up the bottom of the sea and a series of monsters began to come to the surface; among them there appeared a very strange being, very beautiful with lovely hair, it always carried a gold shield and traveled above the waves.

One day Oggun sees her and falls in love with her, but she did not want a man and Oggun, to have her, recoursed to the powers of Ozain's magic, but it turned out that he also fell in love with her and, not being able to have her either, he threw a spell so that she would belong to neither him nor Oggun.

This beautiful being, upon coming into contact with the spell, turned into a snake with two bodies, terrified, she called her father Olokun, and he, when seeing this, threw himself on the earth with boiling whirlwinds of fury and thirst for revenge.

Ozain and Oggun, terrified, went to Elegba's house, who did osode for them and saw them this sign and told them: you have to fix the bad things you have done, let's go to Olokun's house.

When they arrived, he was roaring in rage over what had happened to his daughter orona.

Elegba spoke with Olokun and told him that his daughter would be an acceptable being for the world.

Elegba called orona and, without her being frightened, made her kneel and, applying his powers, Ebo misi eyerbale abo, he covered her with the skin and orona became sea foam.

Oggun and Ozain asked for forgiveness and Olokun calmed down and did not lay waste to the earth.
