Taking a Latin word out of its context is always a mistake, since the other words around it help to define its meaning.

  • The word canes can be the second person singular form of the verb caneo, I am white, I am old and grey or hoary - so: "you are old and grey"
  • The word canes can be the nominative or accusative plural of the 3rd declension noun meaning a dog, a hound, a subordinate, a jackal or the lowest score at dice. So: dogs, hounds, etc

Without the rest of the sentence, as always, it is impossible to give a precise translation.
