Styl-Plus Olufunmi Song: Can Someone Please Translate?
« on: January 26, 2006, 07:50 PM »

Hey guys!

So I love the Olufunmi song by Styl-Plus but it bothers me that I have no idea what they're saying in the chorus. In other words, what does all this mean in English??

Olufunmi ooo
Ma pa mi lekun ooo
Olufunmilola
Mase fimi sile lai lai
Durotimi ooo
Olufunmi o

Thanks!  Smiley

Olufunmi is a yoruba name, Oluwafunmi/oluwafunmilola in full, which means God gave me/ God gave me wealth respectively.

Ma pa mi lekun ooo. Dont make me cry ooo, Lol

Mase fimisile lai lai, don't ever leave me

Durotimi oo, stay with me ooo

olufunmi ooo

hope that is clear enough. ooo LolĀ  Cheesy Cheesy Grin Grin

Interpretation Of "Olufunmi" Song Lyrics
« #5 on: March 15, 2006, 02:09 PM »

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!

Please Translate Styl Plus Choruses For Me!
« #12 on: June 14, 2006, 06:05 PM »

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.
