Yoruba Wisdom

👋

“Ẹ kú àárọ̀”

Good morning (with respect)

🌟

“Àṣà là ń ṣe, kì í ṣe àṣà la ń rí”

Culture is something we practice, not just something we see

🌳

“Igi gògòrò àtìlẹ̀yìn àdúgbò”

A tall tree is the pride of the neighbourhood

One persons success lifts the whole community.

🏛️

The ancient Yoruba city of Oyo was once one of the most powerful empires in West Africa.

🦅

“Bí owó bá ti pọ̀ tó, èèyàn ni owó”

No matter how much money there is, people are wealth

True riches are the relationships you build.

🥁

Yoruba talking drums (Dùndún) can replicate human speech - they literally speak the tonal language.
