Poem composed by me, @diamondrich. Written in my mother tongue (Urhobo language, Nigeria) and translated in English. My mother tongue is written on Bold style. I do hope you find this poetic and interesting to read.

Uviewhe nabor gwa jovwo ~ Your kingdom was Majestic!

Owhogran okwotor iro ~ Established upon the foundation of gold

Ose she sewe Solomoni ~ Your father called you Solomon

Beti, Oghene sewe Jedidiah ~ But, God called you Jedidiah

Foke whewhe ehanje regwolor ~ Because you were an expression of love

Agwarhen wve ogele e ~ Your wisdom was unparalleled;

Iohwo leje yoma kpawve ~ You were the envy of every eye

Egwilor wowo kpare emete korile to wheshe ~ Until your lust for women brought you down

O Solomoni, kuwo rishe ~ Oh Solomon, how thou haths fallen,

Kuworishe vrente ruvie ~ Fallen from the lofty height of honor

Kpotor ri wakpor ~ To the low land of immortality

O Ovie Israeli ~ Oh king of Israel

Iyowve iroro ~ Paragon of wisdom

Kuwo rishe ~ How haths thou fallen

So it was women that made Solomon to fall, women why?
Lust of the flesh can bring one down. Powerful poem

What a cool poem. I like how the poem itself is almost like a psalm from the Bible.
