“Femi Mo” by Asa is the kind of song that moves like a quiet plea, soft, sincere, and full of emotional truth. Sung in Yoruba, the phrase “F’emi mo” translates to “hold me close” or “keep me near,” and that simple request captures the entire heartbeat of the track.
Asa stands in the centre of vulnerability here, reaching out for reassurance from someone she loves, asking for presence over promises and closeness over empty words. Her voice carries a blend of longing and tenderness that instantly pulls the listener into her emotional world.

O lo won o femi mo
O lo won o femi mo
Won't say ikan gan gan
To se le
O sa lo won o femi mo
Aro ojo ti a n wi yi
Aro ojo ti a n so
There was nothing to fear
Nothing to get me prepared
Osan yen lo pe mi
Lo'won o sé mo
Okan mi ti wo lu lè
How could you be so cruel
So da bai
Nkan t'o sé yi o dun mi
Ten years, òjó kan soso out by the curb
Please don't say goodbye
Think of all the good memories
Ten years, òjó kan soso out by the curb
Won la wo o fewa mo
Won la wo o fewa mo
Won't say ikan gan gan to sé le
Won sa l'awon o fewa mo
Ife afe ju
Ko ni gba ko lawo
Éni o doloro
O wa fe yo wo
Igba ye lo mo pé oun o sé mo
Okan mi ti wo lu le
How could you be so cruel
So da bai
Nkan t'o sé yi o dun mi
Ten years, òjó kan soso out by the curb
Please don't say goodbye
Think of all the sweet memories
Ten years, òjó kan soso out by the curb
So da bai
Nkan t'o sé yi o dun mi
Ten years, òjó kan soso out by the curb
Please don't say goodbye
Think of all the sweet memories
Ten years, òjó kan soso out by the curb
