Hello everyone,

I want to welcome you to another week of Afri-tunes which is week 39 and for this week, I will be doing a cover of the song Aye Ole by Infinity. It is a gospel Yoruba song which I like so much. It came out when I was in secondary school and it helped me tbrough so many difficult periods. I felt like this song is needed this time more than ever as the world keeps getting more and more difficult to live in. There are lot of bad things happening around, the economy going doing the drain and it looks like it gets more worse as each year passes. This song is a song of assurance and encouragement that no matter how difficult the situation we are in are, God is with us. Life is not hard with him by our sides. As long as we belive, have faith and is patisnt, things will definitely fall into places..

The song was sang in Yoruba language which is my native language and for those that don't understand the language, the subtitle is beside each sentence below. I do hope you enjoy the song.

LYRICS

Verse 1:
Bowun ko pe titi, iya aye wa o n bo wa d’opin (No matter how long, our troubles will end)
Aimola eda lo mu eda saniyan ra (Men's hearts are anxious for tomorrow)
Olorun ti seleri, oro baba ko ni ye (God has promised, and his promises never fail)
Aini gbaggbao lo mu eda raropin (It’s by the lack of faith that men lose hope)
Bi okun n fo, Ti osa n sa, otito wa laaye (Let the ocean, but the truth remains)
Igbabo ni orisun ohun gbogbo (The source of all things is faith)

Ouh, Aye yi ko male (Life is not hard)
Aye ole fun eni to ni gbagbo pe aye ole (For those who believe, life is not hard) [x4 ]

Oni suuru, ape koto je, koni jebaje (The patient man is always rewarded )
Ai mani suuru lo n mu are eni bo wa debi (When he lacks it he loses his vindication)
