The song “Isele Nla” by Nifemi David is a Yoruba gospel track from the album Adun, released in 2024. It declares a great event has occurred through heavenly intervention.
Isele nla sele,
A great event has happened,
Ogun orun nfo oun,
The army of heaven is shouting,
Ide aye fi de peteru ja,
The chains of the world that bound Peter have broken,
Ibanuje aye mi o ema jade lo,
The sorrows of my life will no longer go out,
Isele nla sele,
A great event has happened,
Ogun orun nfo oun,
The army of heaven is shouting,
Ide aye fi de peteru ja,
The chains of the world that bound Peter have broken,
Ibanuje aye mi o ema jade lo,
The sorrows of my life will no longer go out,
Isele nla sele,
A great event has happened,
Ogun orun nfo oun,
The army of heaven is shouting,
Ide aye fi de peteru ja,
The chains of the world that bound Peter have broken,
Ibanuje aye mi o ema jade lo,
The sorrows of my life will no longer go out,
Isele nla sele,
A great event has happened,
Ogun orun nfo oun,
The army of heaven is shouting,
Ide aye fi de peteru ja,
The chains of the world that bound Peter have broken,
Ibanuje aye mi o ema jade lo,
The sorrows of my life will no longer go out,
Isele nla sele,
A great event has happened,
Ogun orun nfo oun,
The army of heaven is shouting,
Ide aye fi de peteru ja,
The chains of the world that bound Peter have broken,
Ibanuje aye mi o ema jade lo
The sorrows of my life will no longer go out
