**Title: "Echoes of Ikale"**
(Verse 1)
```
Beneath the swaying palms by the sea,
Where waves whisper secrets to the shore,
The drums awaken, their rhythms free,
Ikale's heartbeat, ancient and pure.
```
(Chorus)
```
Oh, Okikiola, son of O D B,
Your name echoes through the mangrove trees,
In the dance of djembe and talking drum,
We celebrate our roots, where we come from.
```
(Verse 2)
```
The sun kisses the calabashes' curves,
As elders gather in the village square,
Their voices blend with the ocean's swerves,
Telling tales of migrations, love, and prayer.
```
(Bridge)
```
Ugbd Malokun, covered in history's dust,
Resounds with memories of Ife's embrace,
Ajana's crown gleams, a legacy robust,
As Ikale's spirit dances in time and space.
```
(Chorus)
```
Oh, Okikiola, son of O D B,
Your name echoes through the mangrove trees,
In the dance of djembe and talking drum,
We celebrate our roots, where we come from.
```
(Outro)
```
So let the rhythms carry us beyond the shore,
To where ancestors whisper in the salty breeze,
Ikale, forever connected, forevermore,
In the heartbeat of drums, our souls find ease.
```
