I took my time to listen to this song when I heard it being used as an entrance song during the reception of a wedding ceremony. Well actually, it was the choreography of the couple and their train that got me hooked and secondly the high life feel of the background instrumentals appealed to me.
I don't really understand the igbo language but the most I understand from this song is that he tried to depict his act of wooing a girl named ada,trying to describe how beautiful and probably homely she is and the courtship paid off because their love affair graduated to marriage with the song coming to a close where he bade his parents farewell with the hope of him paying them visit with a fraternal twin in tow 9 months after the wedding.
Dear readers who are igbo by tribe should kindly help us interprete the meaning of the song for better understanding.
Thanks for stopping by.


You do have a wonderful way of writing
