Joseph Jeremiah Naye Poet Ballad

I B a D a N

A city on a set of hills and valleys
Rusty brown roofings a symphony
Of rhythms in colourful harmony
Ibadan a large city with a village sett.

A cauldron of the old and the new;
The
Present
And
The
Future
A fusion,
Ibadan,ilu to Dan
(The city that glitters)
A star on the West whose
Glare is on the decline.
Ibadan my beloved city
On a set of hills.
