Na Song wey dem dey sing as dem dey go up to Jerusalem.
Very short psalm of humiliation. Servants wey dey watch master hand na the whole picture — eye fix on our Papa, dey wait for one movement. The people talk say dem don get contempt pass enough from the people wey dey comfortable and proud.
123 1Na to you I dey lift up my eye, you wey sidon for im throne for heaven. 2Look am — as di eye of servant dem dey turn go di hand of dia oga, as di eye of house-girl dey turn go di hand of her madam, na so our eye dey turn go our Papa, till e go show us mercy. 3Show us mercy, our Papa, show us mercy, because dis disgrace don too much for us pass mark. 4Our soul don suffer di laugh of dem wey dey enjoy dia mind, di disgrace of dem wey get proud.
