YEMOJA


Stinson Beach, California

Yemoja, mother of the fishes,

Mother of the waters on the earth.

Nurture me, my mother

Protect and guide me.

Like the waves of the ocean,

wash away the trials that I bear.

Grant me children.

Grant me peace.

Let not the witches devour me.

Let not evil people destroy me.

Yemoja, mother of all,

Nurture me my mother.
This prayer to Yemoja is published in
"The Handbook of Yoruba Religious Concept,"
Authored by Bab Ifa Karade.
