The Three Wise Men

At the feet of the Three Wise Men

We seek the wisdom of the city man

Vanguards of Lagoon hospitality,

The dreamers they welcome with a sunflower’s smiles.

 

Lagos is a stunning wealth

With an aroma so fierce,

It pricks the nose from a thousand miles

But how would the heritage fare without the tripartite sages

The Aro Meta: Legendary three-stone statues

Who guard the hearth of the uncommon wealth?

 

Because culture is a living thing

They welcome the visitor with open arms

Because culture is a moral thing

Their wrappers they tie from right to left.
