Hello everyone, and welcome to AFRI-TUNES week 174! It truly warms my heart to connect with all of you during this special time. I'm your host, Icelover, and today I’ll be sharing my rendition of "Peru" by Fireboy DML featuring Ed Sheeran, released in 2021.
The lyrics of this song resonate deeply, expressing a heartfelt longing and devotion to a loved one. It beautifully captures the desire to be near someone special, likening that connection to a place of dreams.
What I find particularly moving about this song is how it blends the vibrant beats of Afrobeat with Ed Sheeran's melodic style. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Let's experience this journey together!

Peru peru, para

Even Peru don dey para
Tonight in Jozi, I'm in Jozi
Mo n k'orin fun won, won jo si
I'm not playin' with you, I'm not jokin'
My third album is loadin'
Mi o kin fa'gbo but I'm on molly
I'm on duty, but I'm on low-key
They wan do me, they wan do mi
They wan do me gan, they wan do mi
Won ni won wa mi, won ni won wa mi
I'm in San Francisco jamming
Won ni won wa mi, won ni won wa mi
I just flew in from Miami
Peru, para
Peru Peru, para
I'm loo-
Even Peru don dey para
Pour out the bottle, I wanna level up
When I'm with you, I never get еnough
Slow whine, I'm not in a rush
I can hear music when you'rе here
Tonight we rolling, party 'til closing
Since I put the ring on her finger, it's still frozen
Love in slow motion
I wanna feel you over me, yeah
Somethin' magic in your eyes, yeah
Girl, I love the way you ride it
And it happens every time you arrive, that's right
Girl, I want you in my life, yeah
If there's a heaven, then it's right here
I will never leave your side, stay tonight
When you wan' see me, when you wan' see me?
I'm in West London this evening
Givin' me the feelings, no I'm not leavin'
Until I fly LA next weekend
Peru, nah, girl, I'd rather go find somewhere quiet
You'll glow, and I'll get lost here in your eyes
Omoge, no be so
Girl, you just capture my soul
Omoge, no be so
Make me wanna just take you home
Peru, para
Peru Peru, para
I'm loo'
Even Peru don dey para
Peru, para
Peru Peru, para
I'm loo'
Even Peru don dey para
Peru, para
Peru Peru, para
I'm loo'
Even Peru don dey para
