Analysis of Abiamo
Abiamo by Abayomi Habib,Nobel luarate
You are my mother whose hope died in the grave-yard,
And I remember the day you became pregnant after sexual pleasures,
Then I Dance to the night as a miracle of the family house,
How many years will become a woman of the house ,
And you gave hope from childhood,
You are Abiamo that gave birth to me,
How many years will you stay with me as a mother who died young to save me,
Then I will dance to the night as a hope of giving birth to me,
When the dance of the motherhood laugh at me during nine months pregnancy,
You are Abiamo and I stay as a figure of the night,
As all hope was gone to the grave-yard,
I remeber with a figure of hope,
Dear Mum,Rest in peace
