Hello beautiful people. It's another week of Afri-tune. I'm ashiru by name. Welcome to Hive @afri-tunes week 109. I'm so happy to be here again. This week I'll be doing a cover of a song title OLORUN by Asake.

The word OLORUN is a Yoruba word for God. OLORUN is an R&B song, from his second album titled work of art which was released in the year 2023. This song was sang with the blend of Yoruba and English language. In this song, Asake begin with a declaration that there's no one except God and he goes to reminds us to always have faith, hope and belief in God's most especially during challenges.

This song is also a song of Appreciation to God for brought him this far and he urge his listener to as well, always give thanks to God at all time. Overall, it's a song of appreciation, and having faith in God.

I'm so happy to share with us, the cover of these song and I hope you enjoy it.

Lyrics translated to English

Èmí mí kọ, Ọlọrun mà ní (It's not my doing, it is God's doings)
Èmí mí kọ, Ọlọrun mà ní (It's not my doing, it is God's doings)
Àwá kọ oh-oh-oh (We say oh-oh-oh)
Èmí mí kọ o, Ọlọrun ma ní (It's not my doing o, it is Gods' doings)

Tá lo gbọn t'Ọlọrun? (Ọmọ ọgbọn) (Who is as wise as God? (Son of Wisdom)
Kò sí anybody to lọ gbọn t'Ọlọrun (There is no anybody who is wiser than God)
Tí wọn bá buga ẹ, oya gbà f'Ọlọrun (If they shove pride in your face, Leave it to God)
Àwọn tí wọn buga mi, wọn tí sá pá mọ o (Those who were gallivanting, they've hid themselves )
Wọn ti sá pá mọ o (They have hid themselves)

Èmí mí kọ o (oh), Ọlọrun mà ní (Ọlọrun mà ní o)
It's not my doing (oh), It is God's doings (It is God's doings)
Èmí mí kọ o (oh), Ọlọrun mà ní (Ọlọrun mà ní o)
It's not my doing (oh), It is God's doings (It is God's doings)
Àwá kọ oh, Ọlọrun mà ní o
It's not our doing, it is God's doings
Oh-oh, oh, èmí kọ o, Ọlọrun mà ní o
Oh-oh, oh, It's not my doing, it is God's doings

Ọmọ no be me, ṣebí na God (It's not my doing, but God's doings)
Carry me from down straight to the top (Carried me from down, straight to the top)
2020, it was real tough (2020, it was real tough)
Fall for ground, almost gave up (Fall for ground, almost gave up)
Mó fún wọn l'Ọmọ Ọpẹ, mó dẹ jẹ lọ (I release Omo Ope, and I went viral)
Go naked in my room and speak to God (Go naked in my room and spoke to God)
Baba God, I no sabi all (Father God, I don't know all)
So, guide me, as I dey move on on-on (So guide me, as I move on)

Tá lo gbọn t'Ọlọrun? (Who is as wise as God?)
Kò sí anybody to lọ gbọn t'Ọlọrun (There is no anybody who is wiser than God)
Tí wọn bá buga ẹ, oya gbà f'Ọlọrun (If they shove pride in your face, Leave it to God)
Àwọn tí wọn buga mi, wọn tí sá pá mọ o (Those who were gallivanting, they've hid themselves)
Uhn, wọn ti sá pá mọ o (Uh, they've hid themselves)
