The irony in the poem "The Mother's Wishes" lies in the contrast between the mother's desires for her children to have a better life than she did, but ultimately realizing that their happiness comes from their own experiences and not from her wishes for them. It highlights the idea that despite a parent's best intentions, children must forge their own paths to find fulfillment.

It is ironic because Okonkwo doesn't actually believe in the power of his ancestors. He has rejected their ways in pursuit of success in the white man's world, so praying to them in a time of need indicates his desperation and hypocrisy. Additionally, his actions go against his strong belief in his own strength and self-reliance.
The tone of "Ironic" by Alanis Morissette is sarcastic and ironic. The song discusses situations that are presented as ironic but are actually just unfortunate or coincidental, playing on the idea of situational irony.
