Poem
I tell a tale of one Oh what a brave soldier In thrall all she saw was hope Struggling for the wings to fly while bonded with chains of pains the world very calm for her seeing what the future would be she waited while depressed What madness beheld her? Why wouldn’t she take defeat? I tell a tale of one Oh victorious and strong Crashing the foe with steel Conquering with great ardor She built her own people With no enemies to feed on Filled with joy they lived more For the end to bondage has come Who knew what would happen? What would the future become? I tell a tale of one land now noble and free Our wings are spread in jubilation Fifty years ago you soared and flew Fifty years today we rise in riches Your children now everywhere Singing to your golden jubilee Dancing to the drums of success Laughing to the healthy rhythm Oh Nigeria at fifty. I tell a tale of one A shore that is full of soil Beaming like the sun in dawn Fifty years ago planted a seed Fifty years today reaping it all with peaceful practice of love together we stand as one happy and fit everywhere So our land be wealthy Oh Nigeria at fifty.
