whassup people.
To the many yoruba experts in here pls do me a favor and translate these words to this song to yoruba for me. My yoruba is very very rusty and I need help, but I understand well.

  THANKS!

"Jesus lover of my soul/
Jesus I'll never let you go/
you've taken me from the miry clay/
set my feet upon on rock and now I know/
I love you/
I need you/
my world may fall but still I'll never let you go/
my savior/
my closest friend/
I worship you till the very end/"

Thanks again!

"Jesus lover of my soul/

my savior/

It translates:
Jesu olufe okan mi
Jesu n ko ni fi o sile
O fami jade lati'nu ira
O fi ese mi l'ori apata, nisisiyi mo mo
Mo fe o
Mo nilo re
Aye mi le dorikodo, sibe, n ko ni fi o sile
Olugbala mi
Ore mi owon
n o sin o titi d'opin.

I have a question, too, that requires a translation:

What does "oyibo" or "oyinbo"mean? I'm not certain if I'm spelling it quite correctly, so allow me to apologize for that.

Thank you, in advance!

oyibo=oyinbo= "white man"

Samakins, ese gan! Thanks a lot!

@ziddy:
Thank you very much for your assistance!

Now, if I may, is that a literal translation or does the term have a colloquial, perhaps, vernacular meaning as well?

Also, is the pronunciation more or less the way it would seem to be pronounced?

its also used -in a derogatory way- to refer to Nigerians/ Africans who demonstrate a less-than-adequate grasp of the local culture.

it rhymes with 'oh'

@ziddy:
I really am appreciative for your help with this!

I ask these questions because somebody posted this in regard to me.  He seemed to suggest it was meant in a good-natured manner (something about my somewhat formal patterns of speech/writing) but I'm not so sure, now, because I'm neither Nigerian nor white!

@samakins u did a good job.esha ku ishe naa ,oluwa a so agbara dotun.

@minute, thanks for the compliments

pls pple, can someone tell me the meaning of 'adara'?

omena555:

please people, can someone tell me the meaning of 'adara'?

I presume you mean to say "a dara" (two words). It means: it shall be well.
Cheers

@ricadelide, thank u very much. i actually heard it in one song by one nigerian rapper (i think sasha or so) and i was wondering what she meant by 'a dara'
