There is so much dance

There is so much dance in me,
This is a perfect dance,
This dance is God,
A God's dance,
Composed in heaven, 
First danced by Him and His angels;
And now released to my heart by His Spirit.
It is been six months since i began these rehearsals,
Today i am eager to dance
But i find out my legs are missing
A brief search says they are with you.
When will you release them to me?
When will you also release yours also
That we may dance together?
For i know also that in you, 
Yes, in you this same dance resides.
To be too careful is to become careless,
Let us dance when the floor is open,
Now that our hearts and legs are insured.
Sweetone it is time to dance!
Ijo ya!*
A o ro jo muso lokun, ololufe!*


* These words are written in Yoruba dialect.They mean, 'Let us dance.'
* This is also Yoruba. It means, 'There is no time to waste, sweetheart.'
