Ile Ayo Kikun Kan N Be

Words of verses by Isaac Watts (1709)
Words of refrain by Anonymous
Ile ayo kikun kan n be
Bit' awon mimo n gbe
Ko soru af' osan titi
Irora ko si be

Refrain:
Ounje iye ni awa n je
Kanga iye ni awa n mu
Enit' o ba mu kanga yii
Oungbe ki y'o gbe mo lailai
Bayi ni Jesu wi,
"Oungbe ki y'o gbe mo."
Bayi ni Jesu wi,
"Oungbe ki y'o gbe mo."
Enit' o ba mu kanga yii
Oungbe ki y'o gbe mo lailai

Orisun iye n be nibe
Itanna ti ki re
Iku n'iboju ti ko je
K'a r'ile ewa yi

'Yemeji wa 'ba le fo lo
K'a le aigbagbo lo
K'a fi 'gbagbo wo Kenan wa
Ile wara, oyin

A ba le goke bi Mose
K'a wo 'le naa lookan
Ikun bi odo nla Jordan
K'y'o ba wa leru mo

There is a land of pure delight,
where saints immortal reign,
infinite day excludes the night,
and pleasures banish pain.

Refrain:

We’re feeding on the living bread,
We’re drinking at the fountainhead;
And whoso drinketh, Jesus said,
Shall never, never thirst again.
What, never thirst again? No, never thirst again!
What, never thirst again? No, never thirst again!
And whoso drinketh, Jesus said,
Shall never, never thirst again!

There everlasting spring abides,
and never-withering flowers:
death, like a narrow sea, divides
this heavenly land from ours.

Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood
stand dressed in living green:
so to the Jews old Canaan stood,
while Jordan rolled between.

But timorous mortals start and shrink
to cross this narrow sea;
and linger, shivering on the brink,
and fear to launch away.

O could we make our doubts remove,
those gloomy thoughts that rise,
and see the Canaan that we love
with unbeclouded eyes!

Could we but climb where Moses stood,
and view the landscape o'er,
not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood,
should fright us from the shore.
 shore.
