Translated English Lyrics for Seyi Vibez’s Cana
You may refer to me as an entertainer
Simultaneously, I assume the role of a preacher
I am aware that you are my healer
No one can bring trouble
Child of Balogun Dododawa
Check your door, you will find my flowers
Leave the matter to Matthias
Mr. Importer, Exporter
May I have permission to marry your daughter?
I know that pride doesn’t lead to success
Water flows more than the Jordan
The Yoruba people possess great power
Maitama, lake water, ah
Maitama, lake water, become more intense
In hardship, I work diligently
You can rest on my shoulder
This cannabis, guide me carefully
Child of butter, treat me gently
Guide me carefully, guide me carefully
Holy Father, guide me carefully
This cannabis, guide me carefully
Child of butter, treat me gently
Guide me carefully, guide me carefully
Holy Father, guide me carefully
I cannot afford to be dull, I cannot afford to be dull
Look at my life, I cannot afford to be dull
We originate from dust, and return to dust
Some are already rusting, I lack joy
The streets lack joy, my mind is crumbling
Don’t mislead me, don’t spoil my joy
You are here with me, don’t be dull
Baby, don’t be dull
This cannabis, guide me carefully
Child of butter, treat me gently
Guide me carefully, guide me carefully
Holy Father, guide me carefully
This cannabis, guide me carefully
Child of butter, treat me gently
Guide me carefully, guide me carefully
Holy Father, guide me carefully
