A Sentence In A Song
Hi,
could somebody tell me what this means?
"Olufunmi ooo mase fi mi sile lai lai"
I got it from a song. Think it must be yoruba but I don't know much about this language. I should learn it because I have friends living there. It thus could be a beginning to know what this sentence says.
Thanx a lot for replies!

"Olufunmi" - A girl's name. It means "God gave me"
"ooo" - an exclamation.
(So "Olufunmi ooo" would mean "Dear Olufunmi")
"mase fi mi sile" - "don't leave me"
"lai lai" - ever!
"Olufunmi ooo mase fi mi sile lai lai" -> Dear Olufunmi, don't ever leave me!

Can someone please translate the choruses of Olufunmi and Imagine that by Styl Plus for me please?
I love them but I just don't understand.
There's another Yoruba (i think, if I'm wrong don't be offended) part of "Imagine That" aswell.
Please help a sista out.
