WHEN WE WERE STILL VIRGINS 

written by Oku-ola Paul Abiola
Fresh like the morning dew,
Stunning without hue,
Crude but not ignorant,
Active and not dormant:

When we were still virgins,
Everyone wanted to be with us,
Friends, neighbours, suitors, superiors,
Endless was the calling,
Intense, the begging.
When we were still virgins,
Heaven smiled and was proud;
Earth’s lauds were convincingly loud.
How I wish those days were not gone?

Our lust has caused us a gloomy dawn.
When we were still virgins,
