“Thy presence cooled the tensive mind. Thou put happiness to agonic mood and gave hope to the hopeless mind, while you ginger those with bad mood.

“You left us extemporaneously. Death! you are wicked! Thou took our beloved man

And left us in pain and disheartening.

Baba Lagbaji live on. Baba lagbaji is still living. May Allah forgive you.”
