Mine will always be mine
And to you belongs your
To the trash belongs the rag
What man is without his own?
...
Nigeria! A once peaceful nation
Flowing with milk and honey
Your flag stands for peace
With your blood you fought for peace in Africa
...
I am only but a child
Teach me so I may know
And teach others
Don't open the door for me
...
When all were asleep, vigil you remain
When all eyes were closed, awake yours is
When snoring played the tunes of sound sleep
While sides were turned to savour sweet dreams
...
