Shangó had been unsettled for a long time, and he went to Oyá, who lived confused among the spirits. When he arrived, Shangó sang, and the egun fled; at that moment Oyá felt herself cleansed. Shangó turned his back and with a guinea hen made her an oparaldo, giving it to Ogún, who ran off. Oyá, seeing how Shangó behaved, fell in love with him, and from their union she became pregnant; Shangó told her the child was a boy and would be called Omí Lala. Oyá kept asking whether, when he was born, Shangó would bless him by teaching him his secrets. When he was born, Shangó bathed him with cedar, amansa-guapo and para-mí leaves; Olofin, who was listening, told him: «All is well, but keep an eye on his mother.» As Omí Lala grew, Shangó taught and blessed him, making a false exit at noon; Oyá fed the boy on malvate, and Shangó, from his hiding place, saw everything Oyá asked him. One day Olofin sent for him for a lunch with Ogún to speak of secrets; Oyá, taking advantage of his absence, seized Shangó's secrets. On his return he found the boy ill, and that brought about the separation between Shangó and Oyá. With the ebbó odara, the boy was cured.
Shangó had been unsettled for a long time, and he went to where Oyá was, who lived confused among the spirits. When Shangó arrived, he began to sing: «Otrupon She ofun oun lele egun oloni.» The egun fled; at that moment Oyá felt herself cleansed. Shangó turned his back, and with a small guinea hen he was carrying he made her an oparaldo, and gave it to Ogún, who was there, and Ogún ran off.
Oyá, seeing how Shangó behaved, fell in love with him, and from their union she became pregnant; and Shangó told her that this child was a boy, and that he would be called Omí Lala.
Oyá was always asking Shangó whether, when her son was born, he would bless him by teaching him all his secrets. When her son was born, Shangó gave him a bath with cedar, amansa-guapo and para-mí leaves, and sang to him: «Lerí Shangó ewe ibashe Olofin.» Olofin, who was listening, said: «All is well, but you should keep an eye on his mother.» And Shangó said: «Very well, father, I know what I have to do.»
It happened that, as Omí Lala grew, Shangó taught and blessed him, and every day, after speaking with his son, he made a false exit at noon. Oyá fed her son on a dish made from malvate; and Shangó, from his hiding place, saw everything Oyá asked her son.
One day Shangó had to be away from his house for a while, since Olofin sent for him so that, together with Ogún, he could enjoy a lunch and they could take the chance to speak of certain secrets. And Oyá, taking advantage of his absence, seized Shangó's secrets; and when he came back, he found his son ill, and this brought about the separation between Shangó and Oyá.
«Otrupon She obana dide Awó oko obatinfa obatinfa oshodo adifafun Orunmila ebbó odara.» And his son was cured.
Note: Ifá says you have to see what the mother's egun wants; and if she is alive, you have to make obori so her angel favors you and saves you. A fever is coming on you from inside and it can be typhoid; you have a rash, and be careful your house is not broken up and you have nothing to set it up again. Take malvate.
