There may be some fundamental misunderstanding here.  What does
orb-babel have to do with org mode and the Emacs diary integration?

The Emacs diary & calendar (core Emacs features) allow for elisp sexps
in the diary file and org-diary is an elisp function that returns
information in the form that the diary understands.  There is a section
in the Emacs info manual on the Calendar and the Diary (section 31).

Conversely, the org agenda can make use of Emacs diary expressions as
well!  But that's another story.
