For those asking for a translation to the song, here's a little something for y'all. VERSE 1: This is the black sheep of the family Finger in the mouth, this is regret The bean cake(akara) has scattered in the oil, what a problem The wind has blown, behold the chicken's butt The cock crows after the Yam roaster The termite eats out it's own eye and covered in blood The Bata(a drum) is resounding, a sound of riot The hunter is disappointed Sigidi(moulded doll) that is deceiving itself Wants to be taken to the river It's too late It's over The hunter is disappointed CHORUS : When my time to dance came The drummer took the drum away When my time to dance came My backup let me down When my time to dance came, that was when I went to play with a kid (baby goat) Look at how I turned out VERSE 2: The masquerade that dances first Becomes a spectator Every day for the thief, one day for the owner When man has had his fill He starts looking for a belly slicer Not knowing that there is more to be seen He didn't see it "It is me, no one like me" Kudos, the powerful one with no thinking, chief of the lazy If only man had deep thinking, he would tread softly. CHORUS When my time to dance came The drummer took the drum away When my time to dance came My Apala (a genre of music) singer refused When my time to dance came, that was when I went to play with a kid Look at how I turned out VERSE 3: Repercussion is busy cooking It's pounding yam, succulent pounded yam Please! Please!, this pounded yam of karma prepared, Who will eat it? The coat of embarrassment hung on the roof It has fallen, no answer to the utterance Full to the brim The rain of embarrassment is about to start. CHORUS Kent really finished Saro with this song 😂😂😂

Thank you. Was going to listen line by line and see what I'd get buh this helps like I don't have to stress myself anymore.☺️ God led me to check the comment section today o.😊
I've streamed this particular track over ten thousand of times on a repeat Mode.....I'm a script writer and listening to this song blows my Creative reasoning
That is my cm!🤩we are proud of you! Apex choir is really proud of you,Celestial Church is super proud of you! Continue to represent with your style of music. Starborn Kent!!!!
A soulful beautiful soundtrack from ANIKULAPO movie. This is bewitchingly awesome 👌🏿. The lyrical content is 💯% superb. You cannot but appreciate this musical piece if you pay attention to words in music, like I do. The thoughts behind those words are so profound and utterly surreal. This makes me to appreciate Yoruba language and its nuances the more. Blending the richness of Yoruba language with the sonorous, velvety voice of the singer, makes the song all the more appealing. Folks, Yoruba language is outlandishly rich, deep and readily available to be explored by any Creative willing to scratch beyond the surface. Phew! What a song!
Wow Kentooooooo!!!! Words fail me to describe how Proud and grateful I am to have known you. Yoruba indeed has heritage, values, culture that is solid, grounded and embedded in its words and in acts of the language. I love the movie, the soundtrack. Congratulations to Everyone of you for this great story. Wow!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽I have not stopped watching listening, learning every line of this song.
As much as we appreciate the singer’s hard-work for this master piece. Could we pause a minute to appreciate our ancestors who bequeathed these qualities to us which we are yet to explore in detail because we have been looking away due to foreign religions and traditions. Our ancestors were us, we are our ancestors. if we hate them, we hate ourselves. ✌️
Hmmm this guy is falz the bad guy's lookalike. He should do a collabo with him and let bimbo ademoye command rap inside small. Yes bimbo can rap. And the collab will be a bomb!
Thank you Mr Afolayan for all you do for the preservation of the Yoruba culture. Mr Edunjobi! Superfan here! From your soundtracks in Moremi and Swallow and this!!! Thank you for your craft and gift!
This song is a song of regrets 😢 i have a lot of regrets the worst one was the one i made in 2015. This song opens up wounds that's has refused to heal even more. So mistakes are not easy to let go off 😭
I love it! Kunle is a treasure to the Yoruba race, Nigeria, Africa and the entire black skinned human in the entire universe. Can’t stop loving your craft ❤❤❤
This is renaissance of the Yórúbá Culture🧫...Aesthetic!👌🏽 Hitherto, I thought the voice was Adekunle Gold’s. ’Kuñle Afolayañ🥰 keep setting the pace in the promotion of art and culture. 🗣️ Iré oO0!
I've listened to this song more than 50 times since yesterday and I still can't get enough of it 💯💯💯 beautiful Even if I don't understand d words well..enough I give it 10 over 10 💕 D yoruba words are so.....hmmmm funny enough I'm yoruba lol
I love this a million times ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ Thank you, Sir Kunle Afolayan for putting so much effort in promoting the Yoruba culture.
The best movie soundtrack. Also the one by Teledalase. Uncle Kunle you are doing well sir. Thanks for bringing uncle Owobo to acting again. I could see elder Ogundipe again
I love your works KAP you are very creative. I have a suggestion concerning ANIKULAPO ... The bird could be more real like what we see in movies like game of thrones (GOT) Secondly the tribal marks could be better maybe polythene cast or mask. Lastly the story needs a careful perusal especially in every scene to ensure that it is reasonable and realistic and not look like an imagination.
How many vote for this song to be subtitled?
Too much wisdom in it to be limited to only those who hear the language
For those asking for a translation to the song, here's a little something for y'all.
VERSE 1:
This is the black sheep of the family
Finger in the mouth, this is regret
The bean cake(akara) has scattered in the oil, what a problem
The wind has blown, behold the chicken's butt
The cock crows after the Yam roaster
The termite eats out it's own eye and covered in blood
The Bata(a drum) is resounding, a sound of riot
The hunter is disappointed
Sigidi(moulded doll) that is deceiving itself
Wants to be taken to the river
It's too late
It's over
The hunter is disappointed
CHORUS :
When my time to dance came
The drummer took the drum away
When my time to dance came
My backup let me down
When my time to dance came, that was when I went to play with a kid (baby goat)
Look at how I turned out
VERSE 2:
The masquerade that dances first
Becomes a spectator
Every day for the thief, one day for the owner
When man has had his fill
He starts looking for a belly slicer
Not knowing that there is more to be seen
He didn't see it
"It is me, no one like me"
Kudos, the powerful one with no thinking, chief of the lazy
If only man had deep thinking, he would tread softly.
CHORUS
When my time to dance came
The drummer took the drum away
When my time to dance came
My Apala (a genre of music) singer refused
When my time to dance came, that was when I went to play with a kid
Look at how I turned out
VERSE 3:
Repercussion is busy cooking
It's pounding yam, succulent pounded yam
Please! Please!, this pounded yam of karma prepared,
Who will eat it?
The coat of embarrassment hung on the roof
It has fallen, no answer to the utterance
Full to the brim
The rain of embarrassment is about to start.
CHORUS
Kent really finished Saro with this song 😂😂😂
A job well done with this translation.....what a song!
@@maryamedun6100 Thank you

I've streamed this particular track over ten thousand of times on a repeat Mode.....I'm a script writer and listening to this song blows my Creative reasoning
That song is absolutely out of the world.
Lol, I can relate. The number of times I've listened to this song is unhealthy.😅
I am a content writer and I thought this was only applicable to me.... Lol
Cant get over dis song

One of the deepest and best Yoruba movie soundtracks I have ever heard. Deep and full of wisdom.
As much as we appreciate the singer’s hard-work for this master piece. Could we pause a minute to appreciate our ancestors who bequeathed these qualities to us which we are yet to explore in detail because we have been looking away due to foreign religions and traditions.
Our ancestors were us, we are our ancestors. if we hate them, we hate ourselves. ✌️
Words of wisdom, only for the wise. I reverted back to the ways of my ancestors, and I have never been so happy in my life.
Hmmm this guy is falz the bad guy's lookalike. He should do a collabo with him and let bimbo ademoye command rap inside small. Yes bimbo can rap. And the collab will be a bomb!

I love your works KAP you are very creative.
I have a suggestion concerning ANIKULAPO ... The bird could be more real like what we see in movies like game of thrones (GOT)
Secondly the tribal marks could be better maybe polythene cast or mask.
Lastly the story needs a careful perusal especially in every scene to ensure that it is reasonable and realistic and not look like an imagination.
Honestly ore, I never had the deep meaning until I read the interpretation. Kent, you are very talented man. 👏
This is so beautiful, God will continue to teach you
Great again as always.
