Lyrics of Blewu as given by Bella Bellow
Blewue, blewue,
Blewue mia d′aƒe lo,
Blewue mia d'aƒe lo,
Blewu;
Đɔɖɔɖɔ Kpɔ̃ me yɔna azɔli o;
Blewu, blewu, Kpɔ̃ me yɔna azɔli o;
Lã to asike me da ata dzo o;
Blewu.
Mawu si me miele, eya koe nya mia agbemenyãwo;
Tsuito si me miele, eya koe nya mia agbemenyãwo;
Minɔ ŋudzɔ, mido gbe ɖa;
Minɔ ŋudzɔ, mido gbe ɖa;
Agbe nɔ kaka megbea Tseƒe mayi o;
Agbe nɔ kaka megbea Tseƒe mayi o.
Blewue mia d′aƒe lo,
Blewue mia d'aƒe lo,
Blewu.

Translation:
It’s Gently
It’s Gently
It’s Gently you’ll arrive safely home (Ancestral World)
It’s Gently you’ll arrive safely home (Ancestral World)
Gently
It’s Gently but steadily; The Leopard does not make haste
It’s Gently, Gently; The Leopard does not make haste
The animal with a tail does not jump over fires
Gently
In Mawu’s hands we are; only He understands our deepest worries
In the Creator’s Hands we are; only He understands our deepest worries
Let us be wary, let us pray
Let us be wary, let us pray
Even long life cannot escape the Ancestral World (the Afterlife)
Even long life cannot escape the Ancestral World (the Afterlife)
It’s Gently you’ll arrive safely home (Ancestral World)
It’s Gently you’ll arrive safely home (Ancestral World)
Gently.

Amissah didn't composed Blewu ...he rearranged it. Blewu existed long ago before he was born.

I kept wondering, too

[@wisdomblasu8279]

It doesn't matter at all. So don't have any mix feeling in it. Ewes have tremendously make their mack in Ghana.
