voice - òhún

Òhún mìí, thou a subtle one but deep,
Erstwhile thou sit among the gods and glory,
Thy sweetness resonates from beneath the dip,
At thy stead, conveys the untold story;
Once upon a time a stammering òhún quakes;
As a little brat on strings and harmony,
Amidst the emeralds and diamond flakes,
Òhún broke her chord and lost the symphony; 
Thou a warrior, Jaguar of my clan;
Without Spears or steel the flesh bleeds at their shriek,


Savoring 

In beginning was a void,
A void broken by a sound;
The sound of an eerie voice,
My òhún chant as the god of òhún abound;
And there it sang,
The wisdom of the tides,
