Stories and patakíes

Only the coconut knows the worm it has inside. Birth of eleguá

The cowrie shell says that when Obatalá, the father of the gods, was going to create eleguá, the Orishas warned him that that boy would try to surpass him in everything.

-He will not want to work and will live in the city, not in the forest.

But he will make a great name for himself, the Orishas, his brothers, told him in chorus.

-Should I beget him then?, He asked.

-Yes, you must give him life, but he will be lazy and will snatch the world from you if you are not careful, his children answered him.

Obatalá made a sacrifice so that everything would turn out well with that tremendous boy who was about to be born.

He offered money, feathers, and a staff.

Obatalá's she-goat witched the staff of the offering and gave it to the newly born child, who imitated his father in everything from the cradle.

Eleguá dedicated himself to the pastime of carving staves and with them he surpassed everything on earth.

Corn is not human.

Have you seen children on the back of the grass?, Asks the cowrie shell.

Want and her two husbands

Eleguá, the diviner, says that king oyo ajori went to visit him to offer a sacrifice for the son who was about to be born to him.

The smallest of the gods advised him to make an offering of money, feathers, and a multicolored cloak, and he told him: -you are going to have a girl, whom you must call want and not give her to anyone in marriage.

His firstborn was born, and the proud father cared for her with great care year after year, until she became a beautiful woman.

One day, the king told the chief of ejigbo that he would give want in marriage, forgetting the promise he had made to eleguá.

He gave him an elegant cloak and a lot of money so he could buy everything needed for the wedding.

He called his daughter, gave her also a large amount of money, and told her to get ready to marry in 11 days.

When the time came, a procession made up of his slaves and his father's slaves, brandishing swords and clubs, led the wedding procession that would take want to her husband's house.

The drums of the chief of ejigbo received the bride on her arrival, while she sang: -if they destroy this house, I will cook their favorite vegetables for the chief, my husband.

Before she finished her song, her slaves had destroyed the place.

When the procession arrived at the market, she started to sing again: -if they destroy all the merchandise, I will hurry to meet the chief of ejigbo, my husband, and I will cook his favorite food for him.

Before she completed her plea, the market, with all its contents, had disappeared under the clubs of the efficient servants.

In the palace garden, there was a beautiful tree that belonged to ogún, where the chief of ejigbo offered sacrifices to the god of progress.

Once again want began to sing: -I knocked down that tree and I will hurry to meet my husband to prepare him a succulent dinner.

And once again, her wishes were orders.

At that moment, the chief of ejigbo came out to welcome his wife, and she began to sing: -knock down that person, and I will cook some delicious vegetables for my husband.

Before finishing, the chief of ejigbo lay dead on the floor.

The news ran throughout the region and the king of oyo ajori sent to fetch his daughter.

Some time passed and the king's subjects advised him to give want in marriage to the younger brother of the chief of ejigbo.

When the new groom found out that his bride was arriving, he went into his house and hid.

He did not let her see him until the next day.

The cowrie shell tells that from that day on, the bride does not meet the husband in his house, and the younger brother stays with the elder brother's wife when the elder brother dies.

-What do you want?, The young husband asked want.

-Everything you have, the girl answered, who found life sweeter than honey.

From that moment on, young and old came to buy everything from the king's daughter.

When there is want of money, we look for money.

When water is scarce, we wait at the foot of the spring.

When food is insufficient, we call it famine, says the cowrie shell.
