Nigeria! Nigeria! !
The home of whirl and gentle winds,
The place of birth of great rivers and oceans,
The land of nurtured fathers and mothers,
I hail thee! !
The pleasure, the thrill and the excitement
That rocks every corner of your streets,
Are like no other in the world.
The heartbeat of the universe,
There is none like you.
You are the pride of the morning sun.
You are the beautiful song
That attracts great dancers and masquerades.
The lion that roars in Africa,
More honor to your reverence.
Diverse in people, believes, culture and religion,
Yet there you stand
One nation bound in freedom, peace and unity.
If I were to die, my remains will dwell in your soil
And when being reborn, I shall arise from your soil.
Nigeria I hail thee! ! !
